ECLIPSE DIARY #02

 These are my uncensored thoughts and my mindset at the age of 18-19...pre-Eclipse emergence. These are found in my old notepad as well as what I've shared in my old Instagram. I do not share all of these views and were written and shared during a time of crippling depression and self analysation

I like to look at obstacles as just different paths. I don't believe in obstacles, in my mind there is no such thing and God showed me why. A lot of the times we like to think of our goals as this. Even this is false, it's too linear, instead I imagine it in 3d.

Straight into the woods and run into a tree, I walk to the side. I am now taking a different path then once before. The same could go for going down the stream while canoeing. If my goal is to get to paradise and a rock is blocking me from my goal I'm forced to take a different path. Imagine if down the stream was a drop that would kill me. The Rick then saved me.

I wanted to go to college after high school, I seen the SAT's as an obstacle I needed to hurdle over. I failed but instead took a different path which led me to joining the Air Force ( Thank God). 

Now  I can still go to college but without the debt, without the pointless low income job(s) and I can major in something I know will directly affect my hiring in the future. There are no such thing as obstacles, just different paths.
