And I Rise. I Rise!!

Does my haughtiness offend you?

Don't you take it awful hard

’Cause I laugh like I've got gold mines

Diggin’ in my own backyard.

You may shoot me with your words,

You may cut me with your eyes,

You may kill me with your hatefulness,

But still, like air, I’ll rise.

I rise!!

Of a path moving forward.

Suddenly seeing the road more clearly.

My moments are coming together. My answers are being answered before I have even asked the question.

I am renewed with a strong sense of courage.

I have a found my, "It's going to be OK"!!

This happened to me last week.

I have joined the list of people locking their keys in the car.

Only I was not happy with that. I had to make sure they were hidden in the trunk. As I pressed the control on the trunk for the tenth time all the while thinking I could get the sensor to open the latch for me. I said to myself. "You can do this"

As I grabbed my pride and put it into my pocket. I convinced a kind soul to lend me a cell phone not once but twice. You see I had been told it would be fifteen minutes to get the locksmith here to unlock my car.

Well that was the longest two hour and fifteen minutes I ever waited.

There was the 104 degree temperature beating down on me. As the sweat rolled down my face there was this voice. "This is not going to be how I die". Drama!! Yes, I am a drama person.

You thought I was going to say Queen? Well only if I am drunk or feel drunk or whatever.

Slowly after the locksmith came and rescued me, I was shaking and just trying to get back home.

I had some help of the air conditioner on the Typhoon setting cooling me down.

I needed to call my doctor.

What was happening to me?

I felt like my chest was tightening. No!! Not a heart attack.

A panic attack.

When I finally reached my doctor, the first words from his mouth.

"You have not failed". "You rarely go out on in the sun much less the higher temps and your body is still adjusting to too much time on your hands.

Even though I go to the gym religiously and walk an abnormal amount of miles. I had to deal with the fact that I am human. Sometimes in denial, but it's a fact.

I have been told more than once from my readers that they like it best when I relate my points I am making to a personal moment. I have been collecting these personal moments for a long time. You see. I am one of the lucky ones that have some great things happen on a regular bases. Some more than magical moments. I ask for them cause I am not in the leasy satisfied just showing up to my life. I like to really live my life.

Even as I am writing I am thinking I manage to only lock my keys in my car once. Oh but there was the other time I had my keys in my hand getting on to the elevator. The doors were closing and I heard a voice "Wait". I threw my hand out to stop with great force and my keys flew out and hit the ground only I was in a really old elevator in Paris and they fell down 14 floors and disappeared to never be heard from again.

See!! Over the top moments. If you are going to lose your keys better to be in an elevator in Paris than the trunk of a car at Walmart. LOL.... I digress.

My thoughts to share with you right now are about moving your life forward.

About feeling the beat of your dreams. If they are not where you need and want them to be then how about right now you dedicate this moment to moving your life forward.

It's been a tough road to travel with this pause in the universe.

You have those days of I can do this. Let's go!! What needs to happen for you happened for me. I have and must simply keep on going. There are way too many things to do here before I move into the next dimension. Relax!! I am not leaving yet but it's important that you maintain the focus on what we are doing. On what we want to do!!

Keep the focus on your passion!!

Lets celebrate this moment of moving forward together.

Step back for a moment and remember all the things you were doing before this pandemic took a swipe at all of us. The entire world brought to its knees. What were the goals for this year for you? 2020 was going to be about.....!!

Let's recharge that energy and get up off your ass and move on.

Those same things that you want.

Guess what!!

You still want them.

Your passion is still inside you.

Let's turn up the heat on that fire in your belly.

For me I still want to make films. I still want to create moments that get me closer to my goals. I still am passionate about the energy and my connections with the universe. I am still wanting this blog to inspire and motivate you. I am still filled with light and happiness.

I still believe in you, in myself.

I still know it's going to happen for me.

Like so many of you there are the left turns off the road that get us where we need and are supposed to be right now. But if you keep making the left turns, you end up back on the road.

You have to keep going.

Today re-dedicate your life to being the star that you are supposed to be.

That talent is still there.

That creativity is still there!!!

I am still here.

I have not stopped believing in myself.

Not for a moment.

It's just too much power inside me to keep still!!

This sense of movement in you, inside of me is proof you have not been forgotten.

That I have not forgotten what I am wanting to do.

To Be!!

When we look back on this very long Intermission that we are all going through.

Let's remember this as the moment we took control of our dreams.

We woke up.

We started living our life as who we really are as people.

We are still the nice guy that is inside of us.

We are still kind.

And yes! Without pause we are still going to be what we want to be.

For me... I am still writing. I am still setting enormous goals for myself. Each day I am ticking off one more step of getting myself closer to the power surge that lives in me.

Of who I am!!

And you know what "It is OK!!

Thank you for reading my blog. Thank you for still believing in yourself. Thank you for believing in me.

And I'll rise up

I'll rise like the day

I'll rise up

I'll rise unafraid

I'll rise up

And I'll do it a thousand times again
