I Am Not Done

I had been counted out. I had begun to believe that I was wrong about my destiny. How was all my hopes and dreams for nothing? I bought into the idea that some of us are just meant to be below average. To struggle. To fail. This is what happens when you share your vision and dreams with the wrong people. The harsh reality is that sometimes the wrong people are those that are closest to you. The ones whose opinions you value the most. How could it be those that claim to love you so, be the ones who shatter your hopes? It is the “crabs in a barrel” mentality that if we are not careful, can affect us all.

Thankfully there was this light that even the noise had begun to dim, it was still enough to attract me like a moth to a flame. That light as I drew closer to it I began to understand it to be me. My true self. My reflection that showed me that I am more beautiful than what I had depicted myself to be. It reminded me of the visions of a future I had long forgotten and a presence of the strong characterization of Love that I was intended to be. It was in that moment that I became determined to not allow the fallacy of others beliefs to become my reality. It was in that moment that my Spirit and I agreed. I Am Not Done!
