Seriously!
The Lights are stuck on Green.
Go. Now!
Each day you sit and slumber at the wheel of your existence, your silent witness becomes consent toward a life that cries forth, Accepted; Owned!
Social Media has provided you with a Guest Pass to the platform you need to begin to take this world by the collar and announce your arrival.
Have the courage of your convictions and step out into the Light.
Don’t be the person who sits back after the years have wearied your frame, and wonders what could have been.
No; this does not have to be the narcissistic pursuit of self!
Be compelled by a grander vision, for the common good and human flourishing of the cultural context of your living interactions, building a wellspring for future generations to live and learn from the legacy that you have left.
I speak these words into the mirror of my own existence, as I seek to make my own Mark on ReMarkable!
A confession of such words is very easy.
I have multiple moments of wavering and wondering. The wilderness can often feel like my too frequent haunt and hollow. Please don’t think that an absence of such moments, frequent or not, is the Test of readiness. The Test is a willingness to continue, in spite of such frailties!
Go.
I am still very much on this pilgrimage. I have yet to arrive.
But; I press on. Compelled!
May my life demonstrate that these words were not empty and that their witness should not be lost on deaf ears.
Mediocrity is my asphyxiation while still breathing. It is my dead man walking!
To the Life!
May it Be…
McCawesomeness
Until Next Time

Did that just come to you or did you take weeks writing it??

Hadn’t really planned on posting again late last night, Ozy, but there you go.
Just came as I was writing.
A moment!

[…] I think Rian and Dan make clear this quote from another post that encapsulates this perspective from my own frame of reference: […]
