Take No Prisoners

“This is your life and it’s ending one minute at a time.” Narrator, Fight Club

Once upon a time, there was a fisherman who never put a lid on his basket of lobsters. When asked – was he not afraid of them climbing over the edge and getting away? he said, ‘Heck no, the moment one makes a bid for freedom all of the others drag him back in’.

Do you know, some of us have lobsters in our life?

The lobsters are in the form of parents, children, relatives, friends, work associates, those who, though well intentioned, will attempt to discourage us from our ambitions.

The greatest gift we have been given is the freedom to make choices. Let us use our gift to its maximum.

The pursuit of becoming master of our life will be far more rewarding than any other venture we embark on. There is an interesting phrase I can’t recall the source which says strive for perfection – not that we can ever reach it. But it is in the striving, to be a little bit better today than yesterday, in our speech, our thoughts, our health, everything else we can possibly think of.
