"Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add color to my sunset sky."
-Rabindranath Tagore
It's time to pick myself up.
This past weekend I hit a horrible emotional crash, one that made me question everything and I'll admit it was really numbing in terms of my perception of life and whatnot. Never have I felt so personally defeated or doubtful of myself. It was contradictory of everything I've accomplished. It was definitely something I couldn't bask in.
It is time I get out from under the covers and get going.
Which is what I did. I woke up today and didn't waste any time. No more feet dragging, no more dreading the day ahead or questioning my dreams and affirmations. Just makeup, coffee, checking the weather and out the door. To come so far and and suddenly stop for a bout of insecurity would not only be hypocritical but pointless. Forget Joe DiMaggio, forget the forces and conspirators fighting for me to fail and trying to push me into a current against me... forget all that.
I'm a flawed human being but in spite of that, I've overcome obstacles and adversity before and my flaws only make me stronger. Who cares what everyone says and what inner demons I have. There's work to be done and I can't stop now.
This is my life. It's time I grab it by the reins again.
