Six word Friday-Focus


Focus: admittedly not my strong suit.
Inspiration and passion are always there, 
Yet it is focus that wraps
Them into something tangible; dreams realized.
Obstacles threaten to thwart me, and
Sometimes it works, I get thwarted, 
Doing what I feel I must,
Rather than following this heart; trusting.
I am fluid, like a river,
Attempting to flow with a path
That seems laid out for me,
There are gifts in this fluidity;
Going with the flow, remaining open.
However, there is burning inside me,
A need to focus these energies,
A need to make them reality.
This is my time on earth,
And I have some big plans!
I continue to 'act as if'
Until I am supported at large
By the greater forces at work!

Nice to meet you and your family. Great post, so much of it rings true in my life. Focus.

I often say that with some ritalin and a beta-blocker I could rule the world. :) But yes, focus and follow through are hard to come by around here as well.
