Day by Day: Decide
Today is the Day: Restart
Each Day: Begin Anew
~~~
O my darlings-
Why are you waiting for the perfect time?
The perfect audience?
The rules and regulations to bend your way?
`
This is your time; it, and you, are perfect.
You are the author and audience of your life; your heart is longing to watch you soar.
The pages are prepared; they await your decision
( pristine and perfect, a new page each day)
The rules and regulations are margins for you to explore as you write out your own journey.
`
Decide today that you will write only truth.
Remember: Dreams and wishes are also truth, they are the breaths of what could be.
Include them in your writing so that they may stretch and take on substance.
`
We have only one true book that falls to us to author.
No one knows how many pages await us.
No one knows the plot twists, cast of characters, s/heroes and dangers.
No one can (or should even try to) write it for us.
~
Sometimes it seems that we have lost the plot.
Dropped the thread.
Must edit out the characters and decisions.
It feels insurmountable: so much effort and confusion are in the pages already!
Don't lose heart.
It is YOUR STORY.
Today: Decide. Restart. Begin Anew.
