I'm done with . . .



I’m done with trying to be someone that I am not.  This acting, this pretending to be someone that I am not takes too much energy that I should be putting towards building what I know I can be.

I’m done with wondering what life would be like if I would only  . . . lose the weight, work out more, strive more . . .  let me take action and just do it.

I’m done with going through the moment too fast with a full schedule each day and blurring one activity into another before finishing the first one, and realizing that I am the one trying to fill up each moment and no one else is to blame.

I’m done with getting lost along a path that I forgot to review, reflect and relish and going along because I didn’t want to face what would be the alternative to not knowing.

I’m done with being marginalized because society relegated me and others to this status, and seeing that I do not have to accept the status quo.

I’m done with learning how to do things the ‘right way’ without regard for my own style, my own personality, and my own gifts, talents and abilities.  Sometimes the right way just isn’t what is right for me.

I'm done with sitting, observing, and waiting for something to happen as if some-thing or some-one will come along, save us and life will be better.  I can create, initiate and lead .  

I'm done with NOT speaking up more for what I believe in while letting others say and dictate how our world should be.  Time to activate, say yes, speak up, and put your money where your mouth is.
