What is it in us?

What is in us that has us press “like” on Facebook about something inspiring about how we will now live our life with THIS much courage and THIS much passion, but then that fades into the world and people and friends and bills and desires, UNTIL, we are back onto Facebook and we see the next status about how are dreams are just beyond our doubts and we just have to “go get it,” but then the only thing we go get is something out of the fridge?

What is it in us that longs to be called a “genius,” then when we’re called a “genius” we think, “call me anything but that– that’s a lot of pressure… a genius??”

What is it in us that knows where we are is perfectly perfect but it’s not where we really want to be, BUT, we keep doing exactly what we’ve been doing and so we keep getting exactly what we’ve already got….

What is it in us that knows what we really want, that big goal, but we almost don’t want to share it with anyone because then it means we might not get it, because we have to work really hard, and if we keep it quiet, then no one will really know so we don’t have much pressure or expectation….

What is it in us that knows exactly what we MUST do yet we don’t do it?

We all have it. It’s there. I don’t know what it is and I think we’d go insane trying to uncover what it is exactly.

Who cares, really?

There’s two choices: beat yourself up, or keep going…
