I have been going through a very private yet
emotional conflict over the last 6 to 7 months and it has cause me a lot of
stress and worry. My life was spiraling and although I was not doing anything
crazy I was losing pieces of myself which is not cool. So, last week I sat down
with my journal and my pen as often do I started to create a list of things I
had not yet to accomplish in my life, goals I have given up on, things I have
taken for granted and things I still want to do . AS I wrote and just let my
emotions pour on the page on the last line I wrote “I BET YOU WONT FIGHT ABOUT
IT”.
If you know me then you know that is one of my favorite
phrases after I talk shit to someone
almost like I taunt to get a reaction out of person but as I look at my journal
I had to think , who was I taunting at this moment, who was I trying to get a
reaction out of? Then it clicked I was
taunting myself because I had allowed life and all the drama that comes along
with to distract me from my purpose. I
like most people could give a 1000 valid reasons as to why the last 6-7 months I
have allowed myself to side tracked and for a while I did. I complained I said:
this is too hard”, “I am just going to play it safe”, “and It just not meant to
be”. I was lost in the darkness and honestly my eyes had begun to adjust when I
smacked into a brick wall of reality and remembered the thing about being in
the dark that the darkness has no real answers.
So, three days after that revelation, I went back to
my journal and looked at entry and clicked, my “true” self the person I was
trying so hard to bury in the darkness was taunting me. The God in me was speaking to my flesh the
best way it knew how. Tugging at my own
ego, asking me all these goals, the accomplishment I already had the ones to
come my way. I was without owning asking myself “are you willing to fight to
live and stop just being alive. There is
a difference between living and just being alive . Which state are you in?
If I am being honest with you and myself, then I
would say I was living and I was loving and then things got a little to real
and instead of embracing the challenges , I ran into the darkness. There comes
a time in everyone’s life when you get physically, mentally, emotionally and
spiritually tired of being hit in the face by the punches of life. If you are
there in life then I have just one thing to say to you GET UP AND FIGHT!! I
know that at times we feel like
everything in our lives are just crumbling all round us , whether it be our relationship
is failing, a job that drains our soul, not having enough money to cover your
needs , health or whatever the case it maybe there comes a time in all our
lives where we have to fight?
SO ASK YOU ONE LAST TIME ALTHOUGH YOUR LIFE MAY NOT BE
WHAT YOU WANT IT TO BE AND YOU ARE CONSTANTLY BEING BEAT UP BY LIFE... ARE YOU
GOING TO STAY AND SUBCOMB TO DEFEAT OR ARE YOU GOING TO FIGHT ABOUT IT??
