this time
/
This time I’m not going to worry about what others think I “should” be doing
I’m gonna show up with my hair covered in saltwater
Rosy cheeks kissed by the sun
Journal tucked under my arm
I’m gonna create my own adventures
And believe that anything is possible if I’m willing to give it a try
This time I’m gonna laugh out loud and not worry if I snort
I’m gonna take my time
Look around
Be where I am
I’ll roll the windows down
Sing along to the radio
Dance in the aisles of the grocery store
This time I’ll awaken all of my sense to what is new
Be patient with myself as I traverse uneven terrain
Give myself grace
Ask for help, and accept it when it’s given
Lean in
Speak the truth, even if it’s hard
I’ll appreciate the miracles
The teeny tiny ones
And the epic ones that knock me off my feet
The time I won’t get it all right
But I’ll enjoy the ride along the way
Being open, curious and filled with wonder
This time, it’s mine for the taking
Grab your notebook and let’s write
Begin with the following words and see where your pen takes you.
