We live in a world of what ifs.
What if we did something else,
or what if we weren’t there (as
sometimes we shouldn’t be
when it comes down to the
wrong place at the right time).
What if it never happened?
What if we had responded
differently or if we had taken
the advice we were told?
Would we have been so bold?

Is what you do enough?
For who?
For you?
Self-doubt?
Self-love?
Self-centered?
Is it selfish to think mainly
of what I need to do for me,
myself, and I?
Why?
When will I find resolve to
my never-ending queries?
Will it be enough?
Do you still doubt?
Do you struggle with answers,
as much as the questions?
Can you decide?
Are you trying?
Is that enough?

I'm like a pencil;
sometimes sharp,
most days
well-rounded,
other times
dull or
occasionally
broken.
Still I write.

A life lived to the fullest is a life lived
to the fullest expression of yourself.
Be who you are.
Don’t step away from what you were,
but step into what you are.
Dare to be seen as who you are,
not who you once might have been.
Build new habits, and break old ones,
redefine what is acceptable to you.
Every step, every breath, each word,
and every moment is yours to reclaim.
Be you.
Be now.
