Yee-Haw,
What A New Day!
Buddy.

It’s my life. That is your life. You take control of your life, and I take mine; that’s the rule of the game. Excuse me; would you give up your life to me? Of course not! Then why not you give it to your fellow citizen? For the god sake; you, will not do that!

I knew that you know John Francis Bongiovi, for sure. At least you have once listened to the great songs he sang, even more. You might hear songs on the radio while you were driving the way home. Sometimes, you enjoyed the songs a lot, but you did not really realize who sang it. Well, even if you might not listen to songs, but; you have heard his name, at least once in your life time. If you have never; you need to worry nothing. Why? Because, reading this, makes you now know his name anyway…

Let’s pretend a friend of yours got a brand new car. What do you think he will do to his car? He will protect the car; take care of it with all his heartfelt. Make it shines. Take it into the service station for regular services. Making sure to use only the best oil he can buy. Best quality gasoline he can find. He will do anything it takes, wouldn’t he? We know he will do anything for his brand new vehicle. Anything.

Do you know what actually Mr Bongiovi said about the best thing of his belongings? Yes. His own life. ”It’s my life!” he said. And I can do nothing more than agree with him. Yes. It’s my life. The best thing I ever have. It’s my life.

I will not waste my brand new car for whatsoever reasons. For w.h.a.t.s.o.e.v.e.r reasons. The question would be: will I waste my priceless life of my own then? Of course I won’t. But sometimes we did not realize that we wasted our life without realizing it. If you disagree with this, then you have two possibilities. First, you disagree with me because you really did not waste your life. And the second possibility would be – think about this – you did not realize you did it.

I am happy for you if you fall on the first one. Congratulation! You are the hard to find kind of person. And I believe that sooner or later you will be the most perfect personality in the world ever. You will be able to actualize all your potentials to benefit your life; people around you. And to the whole world. Why? Because – this is a very important because – you were born with a more than enough potentials to make everything possible. Especially good things.

But, if you are not falling into the first category, then it means that you have less awareness on ‘what did you do to your life’. Don’t you think it is weird if we do not really know what have we done to our belongings? You will be very sorry if you did something wrong to your brand new car. Say, you forgot to feed it with gasoline. Your auto machines would refuse to be started. Say, you forgot to take it to the service station for regular checking. And you just realized it when you had a trouble when you were on the very long travel.
The next question would be: What if you forgot to do the right things for you life? Of course you will not immediately die just because you did not feed yourself with positive attitude. You will not find your self ‘out of order’ simply because you did not care to your own life. But, you let the best things you can get gone with the wind.

“It’s my life!”, said Bongiovi.
“It’s my life!” I echo him.
And…..
“It’s my life!” you may also follow.
By this, we – you and me – dare to take all the responsibilities of our own life.

And, by this, I hope you break the mystery of ‘who the John Francis Bongiovi’ really is.
You got it? Yes.
Jon Bon Jovi.
Like him?
I do.

Yee-Haw,
What A New Day!

Jon Bon Jovi is one of my favorite artists. If he read this article, I hope he understands that this article is inspired by his great song; It’s My Life. Thank you for bringing us the spirits!
