PUZZLE PIECE
I recently enjoyed a weekend with my sisters.
There has always been a joke that
I was ‘switched at birth’ because
I dance to the beat of my own drum.
At this point in my life I have arrived at
‘being comfortable in my own skin’.
I appreciate my uniqueness. I would not want to be anyone else.
Not because I believe that “I” am something special,
yet rather because I believe
that we all are, – “Something Special!”
I refuse to conform to another person’s idea of life.
I wish to bring my own piece of God’s Creation
to this truly amazing puzzle of humanity;
& to discover ‘over time’ how I fit into this puzzle.
Without forcing myself into it;
But by. . . finding my own niche. Finding my own place.
I believe, that we actually can learn to fit together seamlessly; albeit miraculously if we will just ‘let go’ of our desire
to force others into conforming to our shape & to our patterns,
& ‘Be Brave’ enough to live into our own unique design.
This is a scary adventure;-
of discovery, & growing; & of learning & changing.
Finding our own voice, Finding our own dance! –
& then freestyling with the rest of humanity!
But it is an adventure worth embarking on, &
we should bring as many of US on this adventure
as are willing to come.
SO – Let’s do it!
You know that you want to be yourself &
yet still be part of something bigger!
Let’s do to! Today is the day!
