I’ve been feeling a little off lately. Why? Don’t really know. What I do know is I really need to stop tap dancing and avoiding the issues that cause my mental anguish. Be proactive. The mind is willing, but the flesh?
I know where work needs to be done. I know what needs work. But what is it with some of us? What is it with me? I see it, I realize what’s right in front of me. The issues that haunt me, that becomes the walls that block progression.
Life’s good, but not great. Life is not perfect but can be made to be pretty close. Up to me, up to us. Stopping, taking a good look at one’s own life, and what can be made better is one of the first steps.
“Take the first step in faith. You don’t have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step” ~ Martin Luther King
First step… I always feel like I stumble out of the gate. I realize that I’m a victim of abuse and lived being pretty much manipulated, which led to a lot of my current issues, so just sort it out and get started. Sure, you first.
Regardless, the point is to just do it. Get to the root. And if the roots run deep, or are a tangled mess, one root at a time. A mighty bonsai needs care and pruning before it takes shape and shows its real beauty.
Current listen – “Alive and Kicking” – Nonpoint
“I’m stronger now, even after everything that you did
Still alive and kicking
I’m better now, I’m awake
Now I can see, everything in front of me”
