Take Off Your "Cool!"

At the ripe old age at 20 I know more now, than ever that I know nothing. I have much to learn. You never stop learning, life is nothing more than a big ole’ classroom. I don’t know sometimes I look back on some of my posts and I’m like wow maybe I’m saying a bit too much. Maybe I’m giving people a false perception of who I am. Because, I honestly do not have all the answers, like everyone else I’m growing. I may have it together in one way but lack in many other areas. I’m slowly learning that it’s okay to take off my cool sometimes and just be me. Whether you like to admit it or not a lot of us put on this façade, too afraid to show the world who we are. Everyone has different reasons, some may be afraid of being hurt while others may find it easier to blend in than to stand out. But a person who isn’t afraid to show their vulnerability is fearless! I aspire to be like this one day. I’m trying but I’m taking baby steps. And that’s okay, one day I will reach my goal. Patience. Patience is a virtue that I lack BUT I’m working on it. I’m trying my best! I’m in the fighting ring with the world and I’m throwing my best punches. Left jab, right hook. I may fall but as long as I’m still in the ring its not over, it’s never over. There will be no ties in this match. I came to win, and win I shall! I hope you all stay in the ring. Never give up! If you want something chase after it. Don’t wait. Feel the burning urge and don’t forget it. Want it. Need it. Crave it. Live in the moment. Yesterday is a memory. Tomorrow isn’t here yet. Be alive. Be present. Live not exist. My hearty appetite keeps me wanting more. I am always hungry. I am thirsty and success is my only thirst quencher. Yes, I realize that I’ve said a mouth full but please allow my words to penetrate the mind. As Lauryn Hill once said, I don’t mean to sound all ethereal because what I’m saying is heavy as bricks, concrete! Have a magical day my darlings! XoXXoXXo
