Do you know those people who seem stuck on pause when life is rushing past them? Why do they sit there waiting on life to happen instead of being a part of the flow of life?
I have so many of these people in my life I wouldn't/couldn't begin to name them all here, so pick which one you think I am talking about for this blog. My hopes are that everyone lives to their fullest potential. As a Mom now I am totally worries about my own kids living to their potentials as Rachel would rather just slide through life. Frills are wasted on her, as she does not care either way if she has it or not.
I've noticed that I am motivated by those that are stuck in the mud. Instead of stopping by to try to help them, it seems that I am energized by their lack of enthusiam to reach for the stars. I am more likely to stretch higher after hearing the sad sob stories of those with stories of laziness standing in the ways of accomplishing great things.
Where is your talent? Why aren't you using it? It seems that I dabble in so much because I don't have enough time to do everything that I would like to accomplish. I said today if I didn't have to sleep, imagine what I would accomplish. I need about 10 hours of sleep in order to feel fully functioning so my awake time usually is cluttered with things to do. I love being up at night as I know the kids are in bed sleeping, the phone isn't ringing, there is no one ringing the doorbell, and the city is safe and quiet. Besides the one street light I can see from my window off in the distance, it is completely dark outside and I can only hear the rain hitting the paved street.
So this is to remind those that are sitting on their hands, wishing that I'd sit on mine too. It's not going to happen, no matter how jealous you are of my success....they are going to continue.
Watch me as I sail away into the sunshine, build onto my house in paradise, and someday dance barefoot on the streets of gold.........
