I have been listening to this same song over and over again, I knew there was a little story that I needed to find within the message. I often do this with songs, because I feel that there seems to always be another meaning. I’m sure Adam Levine was singing this song because of a hot chick, but this was what I was thinking…
The song Maps, is like life. We all are trying to find our sweet life, our happiness, where we are meant to be. We keep searching and we keep running toward something we think is better, some of us go so off the trail and get just lost. The Map is what we follow to get to our destinations, to the best of times and through the darkness of life. If we only realized that the life that we live we don’t need to find the destination of happiness, the sweet life or where ever you think will make you happy, it is already in us. We need to stop seeking happiness and take a look at our own life and be happy where we are.
We all have heard this quote before, “Happiness is not a destination, But How You Live Your Life.” To be happy with ourselves and our conditions is to be happy where we are. When we are happy where we are, better things will come arise.
Enjoy the day!
