Find Clarity in Your Life

I. THE CLEAR MOONLIGHT The other night, I walked outside to get something out of the car, in the driveway. The night was very cold and clear. No lights were needed as the moon shined brightly on everything around me. I have always been one to appreciate what nature has to offer, but I really don't take the time to stop and ponder that often. Tonight I did. It didn't last more than a short, few minutes. But it was one of those experiences that left a deep impression on me. I thought about the importance of living life according to a well designed plan. II. CLEAR VISION COMES FROM LIVING A PLAN Everyone has a different view on life. These different views generally come from our personal attitudes and habits coupled with our life's experiences. Some people float through life, mostly doing what it takes to survive and be happy for the moment. Others live their lives as though it were a well-orchestrated symphony with all the parts working together in harmony, contributing to a beautiful masterpiece. Most people are probably somewhere in between. Why should we develop a plan for our life? How can we benefit from this effort? As with many things worth having, accurate results are hard to come by without a good plan. A plan helps us see the end and what we have to do along the way to reach that end. III. LIVING THE PLAN Living according to our well thought out plan can bring many benefits to our life. First and foremost, we can be happy - truly happy. As we life according to our plan we can feel a comfort, strength and purpose in our life. This will come because our very inner self will be telling us that what we're doing and where we're headed is right. We can feel good about the results we find ourselves achieving as we walk along the footsteps laid out in our plan.
