There is More
I’ve spent about half of my life wrestling the feeling that there is more to me than who I am.
Let me attempt to explain:
I have always had a strong drive to accomplish, achieve, complete and excel at any task in front of me. I have a constant goal in my head that I am compelled to meet. So compelled, that I often have a hard time staying still, when focusing on it. This can often make it difficult to finish a lot of things.
Reign in Purpose
For example, while writing this very piece, the thoughts are intense and I have gotten up from my chair, put music on, tap my feet, run my fingers through my hair, click my fingers etc. as I take the words from my head to the keyboard. The intensity can be both effective and exhausting.
More Than Me
I always feel like there is so much more than what I can put into words. So much more than I can type, write, or effectively create.
So much more I can be.
So much more that I am.
For as long as I can remember I have had a tendency to feel out of place. Like I am internally capable of so much more than what my external being is able to do. Like my story of possibility is overshadowed by my reality of challenge.
I often make the analogy that I feel like bird without wings.
That doesn’t mean I don’t like being a bird, it means I must improvise and find a new way to fly.
I have no doubt that I am called to be a voice. A voice of connection, reconciliation empowerment and direction.
So here I am creating wings. A lot from determination, a bit from luck, some from divine intention a ton from the help of you.
Let’s fly!
