Having the good fortune to be born in the country, I have always had this gut feeling of encouraging people in their dreams, and at some rare occasions I have actually contributed in seeing to it that they come true.

Now this is me, a young man who has always wanted to see himself as somebody living a life between Man and God. For a great time I believe I have actually grown to it. Because if I were to analyze the progress of my life then I would simply say that I was down there then and I am up here now.

But even with this progress in my life, I have always had a weakness.

It lies in the fact that I cannot answer some questions about what happens around me. For example how do I explain a waiter who serves me with a bag of chips and an empty bottle of soda? or a young kid who tries so hard to act as an adult.

I mean who am I, what is my destiny? Am I good at being me''what is so good about me, and how do I find it out.

Obviously these sound like very simple questions when you over look them, but there is that darker side that we have always liked to inquire, just like any other puzzling situations we encounter.

This is the side where I am again left with another cry, like if it is so that I am not able to answer these questions about me , then what is the meaning of my life here, how do I survive , is there value in living really? And where does it lie.

On the grounds of these questions I found myself having no interest in doing anything for my life, no reason for working, no reason for going to school, and no certainly reason for loving. I am thus content to live no further into my future life, my living on earth suddenly becomes clouded and I cannot see anything good.

Funny but it is here that I discover that one thing that makes me feel this way. It is because I see no good in life, I try to find good and it is not around me. My life is value less because there is no goodness around me.

So how do I get what is good in me and outlook my life? I have an idea at this, maybe try to make good within me.

For perhaps once I have perceived and had this , questions about value in my life will eventually be answered hopefully. In practicing good and seeing well I will be able to vision goodness in my life. I can suddenly see the value of goodness in my life as it shades a light on my disturbed soul.

I shall not again have curiosity on the subject of who am I , and what am doing here, for goodness will advise me to gaze not on the things that make my mind filled with sorrow but those little things in me that makes me happy and teaches me that the best thing in life is being good.

Goodness will thus be the reason to my living and life itself, for it will make me feel simple, pure and uncomplicated.

This is because when we discover the value of goodness, then we forever remain in contact with a reality that nourishes and give birth to things that that gives us the privilege of being and acting like we would have if our dreams were for sure our reality.
