Oh… Hello there, so great to finally meet you.

I have known of you for many years, I knew you existed I just kept missing you somehow. And now, here we are, face to face. Emotions are high and questions are beginning to pile up. But silence. I need to take you in. I need to really see you.
Why?

Why did it take you so long to get to me?.. Why did you lurk in the shadows and around corners? Why didn’t you show yourself when I needed you?

Most importantly, why NOW?

Time.

Time has always been an enemy to me. I am in a constant battle with it.

From making time, to saving time to simply having time. All in the same, but all different and not a skill I attain.

The time however is here, and it won’t last. I must make my move NOW. It is time to own up, to make decisions and to get out there.

Own it.

Own myself. Own my strengths and build on my flaws. Recognize the chapters in my life that were teaching me something and start learning from them. I know very well that everything happens for a reason and each moment should be well evaluated and taken into consideration going forward.

Learn.

Learn to learn. Start using these life lessons, remember when that didn’t work out? Why didn’t it? Should you try going at it from a different angle or perspective? Or should you simply move on?

Question.

Question everything. Why do you feel bad about this? Why do you feel great about that? Take from those feelings to make positive and rewarding choices going forward.

This is my pep talk to ME.

I just met ME. I really like ME. I can’t wait to get to know ME. I can’t wait to grow ME and test ME and push ME.

So please…. Follow me, encourage me and simply have faith in me.

Because me isn’t me… without YOU.

xoxo
