Prompt 13: Action {via Reverb 10}
"When it comes to aspirations, it’s not about ideas. It’s about making ideas happen. What’s your next step?" (Author: Scott Belsky)
Quite honestly, I'm still trying to figure out what most of my aspirations are. So apart from aspiring to crawl into bed by 8pm tonight or have yet another glass of wine, this is where I drop a cliche line and say that really, all my aspirations boil down to one thing: wanting to be happy and fully alive. Happy with the life I'm living right now, today, and fully alive to everything life holds - the good, the bad, the ugly, the amazing, the ordinary. All of it. I want to dance like no one is watching. Sing like no one is listening. Love like I've never been hurt and live like it's heaven on earth. Because I could "aspire" my ass off and it will mean nothing if that's not the end goal. So what's the next step? Sometimes all I can muster is the courage to turn off the computer and turn up the music, then move my body in the completely uncool, but totally original way that only I dance, and love every minute of it. Maybe tomorrow my aspirations and subsequent actions will lead me to work on my college degree or to re-painting Brannock's bedroom or to going to bed even earlier, but today, I dance.
