Day 178: “Lighting Up”
I aspire to light up
Often
To be so excited about what I’m talking about
That it’s visible to everyone in the room
To be unapologetic
Elated
At the thought of something I love
However minuscule it might seem to others
It lifts up my cells
Brightens my smile
Helps me stand taller
Be louder
Shining
You’ve seen it
You’ve felt it
When someone is so passionate
Happy
When you’re so passionate
Happy
Let’s devote ourselves to the shine
Day 126: “Daydreaming”
While our reality
May not be
What we want it to be
We can create our own
In our minds
We can stake a claim
Live there
And over time
It might become
Real life
Day 104: “The Meaning of Life”
When I was a kid
I had an epiphany
And wrote it on my stick-on chalkboard wallpaper on my bright aqua wall
“Is this what you want your life to mean?”
I had this epiphany while I was watching Grey’s Anatomy
And Dr. Richard Webber was talking
Hell, maybe he even said it
But I just know that it hit me
In a booming voice
If I didn’t know better, I’d think it was God
And I didn’t know better then
So I kinda thought it was
But it hit me because I was watching tv a lot
(Something I love doing)
And laying in bed a lot
(Something else I love doing)
But I wasn’t doing anything else
There was no balance
This came back up for me recently
What do I want my life to mean?
I sure as hell want to be relaxed watching tv
But I also want to follow my passions
Feed my soul
Be aligned with my future
Feel energized
I want balance
I want to grow
I want my life to mean a lot
Day 92: “Recipe”
Renewed passion
Eternal optimism
Excitement
Unwavering belief
Strength
A recipe for making dreams come true
Interesting how the cooking is easiest at the start of a new year
