Chapter 2: The Start to an End....

This pass Thursday I walked the Campus of my "undergraduate training" for the last time today. As I did, so much seemed anew to me. Sure I already knew my way around campus and knew to get to the lecture halls early to get a good seat, but so much around me read so renewed.

I think a fact that we all need to realize is that when something comes to an end it gives a chance for a beginning to bloom. I thought my life was at a complete standstill for awhile. I was as the rest of America stressed about my financial predicament while still trying to hold on to the dream. Sometimes I believe the scariest thing on Earth is to be alone with your thoughts. Don't get me wrong I do it all the time but the clarity that can manifest from allowing your mind to just rest and do its job can blow your mind....And thats exactly what happen to me.

I'm so done with making excuses for my own BS! If its not happening in my life I'll get off my ass to get it done or just forget about it. I'm so done with the stress over the little stuff. What you don't know is that this blog has been in works for 2 weeks now. At first it was feeling inorganic but allowing life to simply take its course I know understand exactly what I want to talk about.

How many people believe in the divine? God? Buddha? Ali? Kanye West? (Low Blow....hmmm....maybe lol)

Well I believe in God, I'm not going to get into the religion conversation but I do believe that if you stop worrying about he little stuff the dear lord will get you through. Shit happens as easy as that! Now some of you are like he's going to hell for talking about God then saying shit in the next sentence, and look I did it again, LOL! But back on subject. I ask you to think about the word "blessing"? Do you feel a blessing is in a form of a reward of sorts? Is living a blessing????

Usually when people ask me "How are you?" I say "Breathing!" Then I usually get a weird out face and a false laugh cause they thought I was being slick. But I'm not. The blessing is found in the gift to wake up and experience a new day. And lately I've been getting back to that notion. Just live.....feel in the moment don't deny the truth of life. I've personally have notice just how kick ass I've become over it. I'm more focused as ever, genuinely happy, and clarity is easier to achieve.

The start to the end lies in calling yourself out on your own bullshit. A habit that we all should pick up and make sure to do more than once at the beginning of the year. Damn it took four years of the stress of higher education to get to this place. Hmphf! I wouldn't have it any other way!

Peace
