The middle of the book is where a lot of people get stuck. You read one chapter and you either lose interest or you don’t understand what’s going on. So what do people do? You either put your bookmarker in and leave it for another day or you go back to other pages to understand what just happened. Some people return to it to finish and others forget about it altogether. Either way, we must learn not to stop on a certain page in our lives like we do in books. We must persevere. There is so much to learn by going forward and not stopping. There is so much we can impart to others as we learn ourselves.
The middle of the book is also where you decide if it’s really worth it. We do the same thing in our lives. Is it really worth it to fight for this or that? Is it really worth it to go through heartache and pain in this relationship? You will not only question its worth, but also your passion along with it. That’s when you get stumped and lose interest and stay stuck in the past; stuck on that page in your life. But it’s available to all to make that decision to change; to turn that page in their lives so they can experience much more of what life has to offer.
The middle of the book is also where you go back to previous chapters to remember what took place that caused the current chain of events. This can also stop a lot of people from moving forward in a timely manner to finish what they started. It's the same thing in our lives. We look at past events, places, experiences and even people and even dwell on the past so much that we don’t make any progress. We just can't move forward because we are still stumped, confused or hurt about previous experiences. Some experiences are so traumatic that it may take going to a psychiatrist. It may take a lot of prayer and counseling. But whatever the method that is used to correct the issue, it needs to be done proactively so that one can move on to the next portion of their lives.
Our lives are just like a book. There is a beginning, middle, and an end. Every time we sit down to read a book, we are taking a journey -- that journey, just like our lives, is a process; a process toward completion. At the beginning of our lives, we started that process. We began our dreams and aspirations. At the end of our lives, the completion of our goals and dreams would be our final chapter. What would your final chapter say? The middle of the book, the process or the journey, is the period before the end of our destination. It’s never too late to "turn da page in your life".
