What is Your Lifestyle?

We all live, to a certain degree, in a cycle of sequences. We get up, we do our daily activities, and then we go to bed. However, what goes on during the day varies from person to person because we all live in our own unique world. The way of life is how you see it. Whether you see it from the viewpoint of a construction worker, a business man, a model, or even a zookeeper. But what exactly makes up someone's lifestyle and how would you label it so?

Well, everybody goes through different experiences because of what we like, don't like, desire, lust, fiend, etc. We take every step to fulfill the needs we set for ourselves because we know what we want.  For example, a construction worker is somebody who longs for manual labor, the character benefits, the health benefits, or whatever comes with the job. They go to the job site everyday to build upon something within them. Yet, how can this be considered a lifestyle?

It is considered a lifestyle because of the side effects which come from manual labor. According to the Watchtower Online Library, manual labor trains you for life, it builds character, it teaches you how to learn, and it is a sacred service written in the Bible. So the man or woman who goes to the job site isn't only doing the work for the money, but because of the lifestyle it molds.

Same thing can go for somebody who is the complete opposite, like an accountant. They wake up everyday to sit at a desk and work with numbers and money. What comes from that job could be the intellectual improvement, learning to be organized, and so on and so forth. But those qualities squeeze themselves into their life outside of the job and that is what they become. Those qualities become part of their lifestyle.

So how would you label your lifestyle? What qualities do you gain from doing what you love to do? What kind of sequence do your days consist of? Think about these questions hard because the answers to these questions are the answers to who you are. These answers describe you and what your identity entails. Have fun on your journey!:)

Money stitch

All the time I hear about money being spoken as the absolute lifeline for the american people. It consumes the heart, the mind, and the soul. In the bible, 1 Timothy 6:10, it states:

"For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs.''

All money does is put yourself on a pedestal for the duration you have the money. When your money dwindles down, you bring yourself down to the lowest point. The scenes I've witnessed over a piece of paper is incredible nauseating. Money becomes God in the hearts of those who have succumbed themselves  to its evil.

So advice from me is this: focus on your spiritual background, build a relationship with a higher power, and concentrate on the necessities of life.
