I had a horrible thought
I thought that I was taking too long to get my dreams off and running.
I thought that I was being slow
I also thought that others, maybe even you, would judge me as being too late to the party
And the party ended years ago.
As I’ve gotten older
Listening to the laments of even older people talk about how they wish they were young again
And I’m sure you know the one where they say
Youth is wasted on the young!!
Now I get it
I didn’t before
But then I also realised
Like Bill Murray in Scrooged ( My fav Christmas movie)
Who, after he realised he was alive shouted
I’m alive, I’m alive, I’m alive ( or words to that effect)
And that’s when I also realised
I’m still alive, I’m still alive, I’m still alive.
As long as I’m still here, I still have the opportunity to do something about it.
And so do you
Wanna join me?
