It takes a lot for a person to truly understand themselves. It is even harder to understand oneself in relation to the rest of the world. But without this understanding it's impossible to fully function and achieve all that we can. I am coming to the realization that my thoughts and actions are more powerful than anyone can measure, and I am in control of them. I finally see that I can't see the extent of my capabilities and that brings so much joy. To know that we can do more than we even know...man, the possibilities are endless. My flight is about to take off. What I also see is that I am the co-pilot as God is there too. He has brought me so much peace recently and I find myself more drawn to Him and through Him I am finding my purpose and the strength to follow my heart.
I am pursuing my own path. For the longest, I've been following the footsteps that someone has already walked. I wasn't being original and didn't truly know who I was because I was too wrapped up in being what others wanted me to be. But it's not about fitting in because that only lasts for a moment and doesn't reap any life-long benefits. Think about it. The people that are carbon copies of each other can only go so far, because they are limited to what they see around them and only reflect that exact image. I strive to find myself. Alexandria Christina Shaw Collins and love her. No matter how many obstacles come my way, my mind, spirit and body are aligning and I am giving myself the license to be myself. With or without anyone else supporting that.
"Live with a purpose, even if you have to live alone. Only a fool surrounds themselves with people wandering through life."
Finally understanding the necessity of living in love,
