The Journey to Now

-

For years I have been yearning to be more, have more, do more so that people will notice me and I will finally arrive and be accounted for.  Some how, I have discounted myself to the point that a deep desire to be noticed, acknowledged and accepted has been burning inside of me.  I looked at all those icons, my idols in my own path to help me determine where I want to be.  Always working on chiseling away at all that is not me trying to craft a self that could shine flawlessly.  The people that I have idolized whether real or imagined have left an impression of what I am creating myself to become.  Some how, I never seemed to be enough just as I am.  As soon as I reach a step, I am looking for the next step, the next height to reach.  Always striving, moving on, always unfolding, reaching, stretching, never stopping.  

In the beginning, I was anxious of where I was.  Never being good.  The road looked so long when I compared myself to successful people.  I felt like a failure.  I just didn't want to put in the investment of time and effort.

I always thought it was a physical journey and it seemed so


The little girl inside of me no longer is waiting for prince charming.  I am no longer wanting things to be better, to be richer, to be well known, to be famous and desired by millions.  After a long journey to the present, I am at peace exactly where I am.

Winning is for Everyone

There is a belief that is so strong inside of me that I cannot shake it. I simply don't want to fight or hurt anyone. Or at least, it is something I do not care to do directly (and really, I don't even want to do it indirectly).Today, I am trying to focus on how I can connect to others in loving light. Sometimes, I become defensive and it really hurts me. I know the pain is mine, but I am ready to just dish it out and hurt the person.   To give them a signal of 'do not mess with me'. I do realize this is a protection mode. I don't feel safe. I don't believe I can handle myself in a composed manner. I have taken what the other person is saying personally and I want it be known that they have hurt me and let them know that I put up my "KEEP AWAY" sign on.   So, why is it that I need this sign? Well, I don't know how to handle myself around this attack. I am ill equipped to handle these attacks. Maybe because I cannot even see that it is coming before...
