So so true!!!
I spent so many years trying to figure out who I was, what I wanted and who I wanted to be.
I read all the books, tried all the things and dipped my toes in all the different ways of life.
I learned, I lived and even loved at times..
But none of it really shaped who I was or helped me unravel the mystery of me.
I say mystery because I really didn't have a plan and sometimes, absolutely no idea where I was going.
I made friends, lost people and ended up in the wrong places at the wrong times.
I used to say I just made a lot of mistakes and that's what happens when you don't know what you want or where you're headed.
As I look back now, I realize there was no chance in the places I found or the people I met.
It was up to me to understand what value they did or didn't have to me and my life.
As I grew, evolved and realized that subtle truth, my life and understanding of it slowly changed for me.
I found more of myself and less of what I didn't want.
And those things I had chased and wanted- love, truth and growth.
They came when I was ready, not a moment before.
I used to be so upset when people left my life.
But now, I get it.
Embrace the change, live loudly and just be happy.
Never has something that sounds so easy ever been so hard.
But that's the thing about our lives and the journeys we take.
We learn much more on the way there than we do upon arriving.
And I'm okay with that.
So, if you see me out there, join me and let's share the way for a bit.
Sounds pretty great if you ask me.
Either get busy living or get busy dying, someone once said.
Let's try that living thing for a while, with no regrets.
See you soon, out there.
Be a voice, not an echo.
