I was thinking about a toy to get my little niece for the times she comes over to hang with her cool Uncle.
What came to mind was the puzzle block toy. This should keep her entertained and also challenge her at the same time.
I remember when I was a young boy playing with those blocks and getting frustrated trying to match the shapes into the right holes.
Initially, I had little to no patience. I would try force the shapes in the wrong place.
At times, I would just give up because they wouldn’t fit or I would get them stuck.
I would attempt to break parts off, grind them in to spots, and anything else I could think of to manipulate them into fitting in to the holes.
We sometimes do that in life. We force ourselves into the wrong spaces. We stay in situations that we are uncomfortably comfortable in and express that we are stuck but make no efforts to get out.
We manipulate ourselves to fit by neglecting our calling, desires and goals.
We become willingly stuck in life. It can be at our jobs, in our relationships, where you live and how you live.
We need to take time, be patient and make sure we fit where we are designed to fit.
We need to put in effort in achieving our calling, desires and goals.
Don’t get stuck because you don’t fit and don’t manipulate yourself, forcing yourself to fit.
Eventually with effort, patience and understanding; we will learn where we fit.
Do what it takes to be happy and Move Forward.
