A Quarter of a Century

i'm having what you call a case birthday anxiety. no matter what i'm doing or thinking on my "special" day, somehow it almost always turns out to be a not-so-good day. or maybe it's just a matter of perspective.

in a few days, i'll be turning 25-- i think life begins at 25. despite that anxiety, i just feel that something great is going to happen and that i will be able to accomplish lots of great things this year.

i'm changing my perspective. i am actually looking forward to what may happen on this day and the days that will follow. now i know this will be a happy year for me because i've decided that it will be one. and He will make it happen.

Crossroads

i am at a crossroads.

you're in a situation where you just have to choose. it may be difficult, but a choice has to be made.

it's always scary leaving something comfortable and tackling an unknown thing, which you actually know to be good for you.

i've read about this species of bird. the mother builds a nest on top of a really steep and rocky mountain. once her offsprings turn a few days old, she coaxes them out of the nest, and jumps off the cliff with the chicks following suit. some of these small birds don't make because they still can't fly and so they hit the ground and die. but a few also survive because they figure out that they just need to spread out their wings and the wind will help them fly.

i guess now i just need that little push off a cliff and start learning how to fly.
