Stop Waiting

Some will go there whole life wishing for things to be different;

Some will wait, for things to be perfect, before there willing to move forward & try.

I have ran down the middle of the road my whole life. I had to learn to maneuver & overlook the flaws. I refused to commit to any side.

I never had the benefits of a perfect life or the perfect circumstance.

I had to accept that good enough was better than nothing & so it was.

If my life was going to be happy, I had to look at the haveS, over the have nots;

I had a choice to let negative circumstances dictate my existence or move past them, through them and rise above them.

Life is often unfair. It would be easy to dwell, become weak or sink to the bottom and accept that this was where I was suppose to be.

I had to fight everyday to become something more, something to be proud of, something special. It was and is my own personal battle.

We all have our secret struggles, our scars, our Nemesis our imperfections in life, that try to hold us back.

We shouldn’t stop personal growth, because we can’t be perfect. The perfect life is just an illusion, we must embrace the life we have been given. Appreciating what we have & relishing the moments we have left, to live them. Time is such a rare commodity. Don’t waste it waiting.

Even though I may be tired, I shall never stop reaching to become something more. Not because I want to be perfect, but because I want to be the best version of myself.

It’s never to late to try, stop waiting for the perfect life, get up and reach!!!
