Sometimes, Life Thrusts You Into What You Were Always Meant To Do

You might not enjoy how you get there, thing is, you get there.

Today was one of those days, you know, wondering how you got where you are and contemplating the ideas of YOLO and FOMO :) On my birthday earlier this month, I made a wish. The wish was to be surrounded by my extended family, super smart people, life at the speed of a New York minute and doing what I love to do. Less than a week later, got my wish. The sense of loss is crippling, however, the sense of gain parts the clouds and allows the sun to beam down, a spotlight.

I feel like a caged lion finally being released. I’m scared shitless and in moments like this, these words come to mind:

“Every once in a while, the lion has to show the jackals, who he is. It’s too late to be scared. It’s time to kill.”

I’m the lion.
