Someone asked me, “What is motion?”
My answer? Motion is a law, a law so deeply rooted in nature that even when we want to stop, we can’t.
I chuckle when people pull out old videos to mock others for changing their minds. But they forget: it’s natural to shift perspectives. A man can stand firm on something this minute and evolve in the next. How much more over the span of years?
That’s motion.
We don’t just move forward, we move sideways, downwards, upwards. And yes, it’s always more desirable to move upwards, in wisdom, in impact, in purpose as long as we don’t crush or harm others along the way.
Everything in nature is moving.
🌊 Rivers flow or they stagnate.
🌍 The Earth spins non-stop.
🌸 Seasons change on schedule.
🌟 Stars glide through galaxies.
Why should man be any different?
I’ve seen people retire from work, and sadly, some also retire from life. They step away from purpose, from challenge, from contribution… and soon they fade. Not just physically, but mentally and emotionally.
Retirement from a job is fine. But retirement from life? That’s decay.
We were not created to coast. We were born to build, to serve, to learn, to grow, to give. We must remain engaged and be in alignment with our Creator's laws, with our gifts, with others.
You don’t have to stay in the same lane forever, but you must stay in motion.
Even in old age, bear fruit or at least cast a little shade.
Even in your final inch, burn like a candle, giving light till the very end.
The world may say “retire.”
But heaven says, redirect.
Keep thinking.
Keep giving.
Keep becoming.
That’s motion. That’s the way. That’s life.
