Take me Places

Thinking about my world and how life surprises us.  How it takes you places you never thought you'd be.  In your heart and also in your steps.

I never thought I'd end up where I am.  I hoped for things and dreamed, but when they actually transpired, it was like another day.  Slowly life shifts to center you where you are and then it's the normal.

I desire more.

I woke up today feeling sad and wanting.

I woke up feeling wants.  I want to be a good librarian.  I want to blog.  I want to be happy.  I want to have lots of energy and do art.  I want to write and to laugh everyday.  Everyday.  I want to be inspired to give the world the best of me.   The best of something only I can give.  I want to cry and scream and dance.  I want to jump and crash down into myself and let go of all the pain and hurt of the past.  I want to love my life and my people with all the abandon I have.  Be a tender source they are drawn to.

It's time.

Time to be somebody.

Again.

Time to choose to be somebody I wasn't yesterday.

Life is full of surprises isn't it?  I am my biggest surprise.
