Swinging…

The sun sets on another day…

There I sat, swinging in the wind. A testament to the wind itself. There I sat, waiting for the sun to rise once more.

Waiting can be a pain. Literally. Waiting for anything. We wait in line for so many things in life, we wait patiently for others things. We wait impatiently for a few more. Still we wait.

It is great though when the waiting is over, but still there is the wait, or is there? I challenge you, perhaps I implore you to stop waiting. Sure, there are things you have to wait for, but move on and find them when the time is right. Stop looking for those seconds, or moments, or more, and instead live life to its fullest each day. Sure, good things come to those who wait, but only if they are not sitting there waiting, only if they are waiting while they are living. 

You know, it would be nice if we could wait all the time until the stars just aligned, but it really doesn’t work that way often. It would be nice if we looked at the world and went “wow that just worked” but it really doesn’t happen as often as it should. It would be nice if everything we wanted just fell into our lives, but it rarely does, so instead, fire up, live life, and while you are not waiting as you are waiting, maybe the best things in life will show up. Even if they don’t you will live more, laugh more, and love more as each moment passes.

So as the sun sets on another day, let’s dispense with the anxiety, and move on the the fire almost all of us have inside. Let’s skip the silliness, and move on to the wildness that lets us find our center. Let’s find the way to no be that person waiting, but instead be that person that is pressing the envelope for life each day, no matter what.

Sleep sweet, live, and live a little more…
