Finding Clarity in a Blur
Finding Clarity in a Blur
Chaos, uncertainty, fear. Most would say,
“You’re lost.”
However, I am just now beginning to find myself.
This world is like a blur, moving so quickly, it is hard to focus.
Click here, double-tap that, swipe left… no right…
Hang up the phone and begin looking beneath your nose.
Don’t be afraid to ask questions and be the dumbest person
in the room. Better yet, seek to always be
“The dumbest person in the room!" so you can absorb the knowledge surrounding you.
Take chances, the kind of ones that force you to grow, without breaking you
into tiny pieces. Nourish your ego with humble pie and shrug off all those
who seek to steer you away from your Personal Legend.
But first, clear your mind, so your heart can speak. For
it will take you
towards your Personal Legend.
Where does this “poem” come from?
This poem is an attempt to explain the confusion I feel. There are moments of clarity in my life, however, with each trip I take, I return to my van with more questions than answers. At times, these questions can be daunting and create anxiety, but when I take the time to release these emotions, through writing most often, a sense of calm typically overcomes me.
Two thoughts that I have recently been working through…
-Our lives can be simple, why do we decide to complicate them?
-Why is it easier to move, than to remain still?
