I went to a concert up in Bethel, New York last Saturday which is rarity for me because a lot of times I don’t like going to loud concerts. I found this concert was not so loud as other concerts I have been to in the past. Furthur is a band consisting of 2 members from the Grateful Dead, Bob Weir and Phil Lesh. I found it to be very inspirational and found many innovative visuals in the background of the stage. Although I hear it didn’t feel the same as when the band was the Grateful Dead with Jerry Garcia, the music continued to live in. They played a song from their old band, the Grateful Dead, called “Cassidy” that night which to my unknown knowledge spread the word about Neurodiversity even before Neurodiversity became very popular in more recent years.
Read some of these lyrics from the song “Cassidy” from the Grateful Dead/Furthur band:
Fare thee well now, let your life proceed by it’s own design.
Nothing to tell now, let the words be yours, Im done with mine.
Fare thee well now, let your life proceed by it’s own design.
Nothing to tell now, let the words be yours, Im done with mine.
It almost sounds as if all of us should living our life the way it is, the way it ‘AUT’ to be. A lot of people have trouble accepting who they are and build up too much anxiety to function in this society. There are many people out there who struggle to keep their own faith and strengths to survive.
If only there were a way to change, change how every one perceives other people who they feel can’t do anything. Society have strict rules for every one to live in this world. Some of these rules help us connect better with each other while some of these things society established does not allow some people to flourish. Instead society rather push some of these people away who society feels can’t succeed, but what is the definition of success anyway. Success (by dictionary.com) is the accomplishment of an aim or purpose.
What if not every one on in society has such a complex purpose? Some people may just have a simple purpose in life which is why some people die younger than others or some people need to do simpler jobs. Although some people become lost forgetting their purpose somehow.
Think about your life’s purpose! Are you proceeding in your life to fulfill your success? or, Are you just proceeding through life over someone else’s purpose? Its important for any one to fulfill their idea of how they want to live no matter how simple or complex it may be. Don’t lose yourself, fulfill your greatest desires to win!! For any one winning is different, but for some people who are lost they think they already won. It takes a lot of courage, strength, and dignity to fulfill yourself at heart. Don’t take it for granted and don’t be lost in this world. Otherwise you may never really succeed and live a life not so well served.
