The Universe Is The Canvas To Our Mind

Have you ever asked yourself why do we feel the feelings we feel, or encounter the people and things we encounter?

The Universe Is The Canvas To Our Mind
mysteryplanet.com

I am an atom made from many particles, cells, and chemicals. I am matter, a physical substance, that pretty much occupies space. I occupy such immense amount of space in my world, but a tiny dust ball of space in the entire universe. My mind wonders in so many directions and doesn't stop wondering, and I try to understand every little bit of human nature, and society. Its almost like a bad case of anxiety. For many, we are just people with heartbeats, veins, and blood vessels, but to me we are more than that, and that's where the bad case of anxiety roots from. You see; I am more than just occupied space, and so are you. There is meaning to madness, and without madness there would be no meaning. Throughout all of my struggles and mental battles I have learned to understand this concept.

The universe works through the energies in our bodies, and what we put out, we shall receive. I believe that there is meaning to every obstacle, and experience we encounter. As much as I try to beat my feelings and know all the answers I will never see victory, because it's not meant for me to understand it all. What I must keep in mind is that there is a purpose behind it all, and I am willing to fulfill this purpose. Life wouldn't be life If we never face heartache, disappointment, failure, and misunderstanding. It is the process of life that unfolds our purpose. Not understanding why these negative energies exist is a mystery, that only the universe holds the answers to.

Every beating heart has a mission, a destination, a story to tell. My story is pretty much like yours. I wake up every single morning, trying to see victory. I wake up trying to accomplish something more valuable than yesterday. Our destinations are quite different, but our challenges may be the same. For instance, we all want to make a difference in society, make the world a better place, live the American dream, fall in eternal love, and live a fulfilling life. So we wake up every single day to reach a step closer to those gifts that the universe holds. But, in between the hours, minutes, and seconds of the day the signals in our brains give us all kinds of emotions, that challenges us, and puts us through a test, where we tend to doubt ourselves, and go on extreme tangents. I, my fellow readers am guilty of it all. I am guilty of wanting the answers from the cosmos.

Tomorrow doesn't want us to know the gifts that it has for us, because then we would never work for our harvest. It's frustrating and absolutely confusing, but this is why living in the moment, and accepting the battles are important. Staying true to who we are, and waking up every day loving what we do is the best thing to put out, because if we give the universe the best of our ability we will forever be rewarded.

We all have a purpose, I occupy space for many reasons. I don't quite know the reason yet, nor do I understand my place, but I am confident enough to say that my journey is unfolding, and I am standing on top of the globe overseeing it all. I send all the fluorescent and most uplifting vibes out to all the cities. There are blessings all around us, and countless beautiful gifts to come. Congratulate our neighbors and let's never question the universe, for it already knows what's destined for us.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
