Moments remind us that we have to follow our path without regret or hesitation. We will always have those who love to tell us how we could do so much better if only. "If only you went back to school you could blah blah blah." "If only you hooked up with so and so your life could be blah blah blah" "If only you went to more open mics folks would blah blah blah" "If only you met this casting director things would blah blah blah" "If only you were not so threatening to my own unfulfilled dreams I would stop telling you if only"
Well let me share my two cents. I am not here to serve as a reminder of what you should be doing. I am here to remind myself always of what I can do. I am here and on this path because I chose it and it unequivocally chose me.
So since I did not ask for your advice and your "if only" suggestions, I am going to continue down this road until I exhaust all of its possibilities, moments, and lessons. I am going to keep living in my truth and I pray that you find yours before I sock those suggestions and hints right out of your mouth!
So move on our of my path and I will see you on yours soon. And guess what?! I will simply let you be and do you while I simply do me. (drops mic and happily runs off stage left)
