Seize Me
6-13-18 I feel my thoughts and ideas moving so fast. I don’t really know if I can keep up. But I keep pushing because I can sense the wave of change; the pressure from my thoughts and my actions are about to erupt. Sometimes it’s hard to connect the dots. I can’t sense my direction, but the calming thoughts of faith means a lot,I just relax and break my goals out into different sections. Spending all day trying to fight my heart with what the world wants, then I look up and see all the time I wasted I could have just wrote down my thoughts, I could have just took action and decided later, knowing no matter what I have favor. Have so many distractions I’ll try to cater, it’s no wonder I don’t ever see what I was supposed to see until later. What’s the difference between that and meeting a girl and realizing you really want to date her. Do I just watch her leave, question myself, fearing rejecting? Or should I just breathe, pace myself, and embrace the new connection?
