Just Getting Some Perspective

Imagine your life as an egg just sitting on a wall. You aren't bothering anyone; you just want to see the world from another perspective. You want to be strong enough physically and mentally to allow yourself to sit on that wall and look out. You are finally able to get to that wall through growth and development. You are 18 years old and looking for some perspective. Now with eggs, there are dozens of different kinds. You never know if another egg will want to sit with you and take it all in. There will be a time though that an egg will not know what you think you are doing and they find the perfect opportunity to impress their fellow eggs. They want to throw rocks at you and do everything they can to make you fall. They get off to the idea that when you hit that ground you will crumble; never being able to pick yourself up nor will you be able to regain the confidence to climb that wall again and be the same way it was before. No matter how much you prepare yourself for that rotten egg, one day, you will fall off of that wall. It will happen, that is life. Eggs don't sit on walls all day every day without life throwing gusting winds at them or earthquakes. You cannot escape it. My advice to you would be if you are sitting on that wall and someone starts throwing rocks at you or life is throwing winds; you pay attention to how you feel on the inside and go with your heart. Or in this idea follow your yolk because once your shell breaks you can either scatter all over the place and not know what to do or you can turn into a chicken and show those other eggs what you are really capable of; that they should never underestimate your strength.

Jessica I'm going through exactly this at my job with the one rotten egg!!! The difference between the eggs is age defiantly! When you have already experienced it you know for the next time. I'm the older one so I know how to play shall we say the egg game. When it comes down to it some are just very miserable eggs and they don't choose to make it better for themselves they want to blame everything else or every other egg. And weather that egg chooses to hatch or not is their problem and one day that egg will be the one that will end up falling!!!!

I never thought about that concept and that is a great way to look from another perspective. Thank you, this is great way also to learn about life little problems of making in the world,and being a person of character holding your head high letting nothing hold back down even if something gives you problems.

Kind words but ...Jessica your only 18 years old you havent lived anything yet. Wait until your older then your advice, your way of thinking and the experiences youll go thru will be different. Your just tasting a bit of lifes experiences..The real life is different. Prepare your self continue educating yourself because youll need it. But if your post helps the younger generation or anyone for that matter then great.

You're kidding, rt? I don't know where u grew up but this is the real world and it's dog eat dog. Don't u believe in candy and roses. They world isn't built like that. Y do u think the kids on Japan go to school from 9-5? Any what about the summers off from school? Never happen. Having the summers off and all those "holidays" that u get during your school years is not the real world. Point, wake up and smell the coffee because that's what you're going to need everyday to get out of the house and go to work. Happy Hunting.....
