Who reading this feels that they have multiple things to offer the world. I know I do.
That's why I'm putting all these words on this page. Not to tell you that we should all be interested in a million things, but because I don't want to pick ONE thing, I don't want to BE ONE thing. I want to be creative, and analytical, a #girlboss, and a mom. I want to be kind, but I want to speak my mind and not apologize for it. I don't like being told too choose, I refuse.
Thinking that my life could end up being dedicated to one single thing for 40 years makes me itchy, phobic, and downright depressed. I have the upmost respect for people that can really commit to working/being one thing, but my personality won't allow for that.
I want to have my cake and eat it too, I want to work out at 5:30 in the morning and have a healthy lifestyle, but I still want to drink that ten precent craft until two in the morning. Balance is the word, but I don't want balance, I want a full throttle, e-brake, burning rubber to stop kind of life. Moderation is for wimps (not really, but I'm totally incapable of balance, ask my husband). I love hard, I fail hard, and I live hard. I don't think that's anything to be embarrassed about or ashamed of, I think that's something to celebrate.
Three years ago I moved to a new town after college and had no idea what I was doing with my life. I had just graduated and I completely underestimated the emotional toll that moving into a new life stage took. I had a job I was thankful for, but not happy at, so I decided to get a dog (disclaimer - he is totally awesome, but so much work, yet I can't imagine how much cheaper he was than therapy), take a night class twice a week for 3.5 hours after work, and maintain the social life I had in college. Needless to say, I did end up realizing that I have to be reasonable while "living life to the fullest"
Everyday I'm learning, and it's not by being passive, It's because I'm out there trying twelve new things a week, finding out what my passions are, living my life to the fullest. I've learned a few things along the way.
So lets go all in, and lets make sure that our legacy is "she had no idea what she was doing, but she did it all".
Be fierce my fellow humans.
Cheers
