C (100) Keepin’ It!
We made it! 100 consecutive daily posts. And if you’ve been following this hundred post journey, the past few days I’ve been experiencing some minor blues. But I’m starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel and feel a corner coming up just beyond what I can currently see.
I was in the dumps because some things didn’t go my way, but then some other things came through in a way that is more in line with everything else that I do. Meaning things that weren’t mine didn’t go my way, but new ventures on this path I’m forging came into play. I want to be clear, but I have to be vague until contracts are signed and I’m at liberty to openly share. What I’m saying is, it’s all in the mind, and even in the peaceful mind there will be storms that come. Sometimes it’s a quiet storm, you don’t see or here it coming, but all of a sudden you feel the devastation. And then just like that, the light creeps back in, you can lose it all, and gain everything in an instant.
We’re both the authors and the witnesses of our stories, the way we live our lives, and the stories we tell ourselves and others. We are the authors, the narrators and the protagonists all at the same time. Often we are our biggest antagonist as well, who has ever been harder on you than yourself?
I know that it doesn’t exist, but I’m still often guilty of wanting the easy way, so I take these side chances. When they don’t pan out, I realize, I’m not gonna have a choice, I’m gonna have to step up and be great. But then you have to step up, and be great. Knowing it and doing it are two different things, but they’re also one in the same. Two sides of the same coin. Two sides to every story, but that’s not true, because stories change over time, just like life.
If I’m journaling my journey, does that make me a journalist? If I author my own destiny does that make me a self-determinist? I’ve been on multiple vision quests, and I saw where my soul rests. The Universe is singing through our choices, so I’m voicing my soul, bless.
Did that make sense? Basically, I’m saying bless you wherever you are, know that you’re a star. I’m wishing you all the love and magic on your journey through this thing called life. If it didn’t make sense, then I’ll work to make it more clear. 100 more days starts tomorrow, starting today. I hope to make writing daily a non-negotiable part of my days, along with meditating, and keep building from there. I focus on what positive things I can bring in, and do my best to keep the negativity out. Sometimes we find ourselves in very dark places, but that just helps us recognize the light. Shine on.
