#MyLifeAsAHuman - Entry#567 - Resolution Realization

It's a new year and my aspirations are different.
My wants have changed and my needs are more prominent.
I find myself travelling in my mind in a way I never did before.
I'm searching and this time I know what I am looking for.

My fears are no longer the same and my dreams are yearning, yelling, revolting.... To become a reality.

My patience has dwindled and has made me more determined, more focused, more certain.

I have no desire to be mediocre anymore.
I have no excuses left to tell myself. Instead I have reality. I have realization. I have drive.

So as I am standing here, at my bus terminal, waiting to board the vehicle that will take me to my destination of circumstance. My 9 to 5...
I ready myself for my inevitable journey of accomplishment. Knowing I must travel this road in faith and determination.
Confidence and strength.
Knowing self belief is most essential...
I ready myself.
For my voyage, to fly.

I'm sitting here gazing out into a world of possibility and purpose and I chide myself for being a coward sometimes. I get mad at myself for doubting as much as I do, for hesitating and finding excuses. I look back and remember when I was a fearless dreamer, blatant in my belief, obnoxious in my certainty.... And I wonder.... Where did she go? Where did that girl go? Was she killed off by cynicism? Knocked down by reality.... Captured by adulthood? Defeated by life?... I shake my head, for it is better than hanging it in shame. I steady myself for the mourning of my past self.... And I think... Am I but a shell of my former self? Void of truth and inspiration? Am I so empty a vessel that my noise is nothing but a deafening yet unnoticeable silence?... These are my fears that nip at my confidence, that drown my rising strength. These are the fears I hold on to, to feed my pity party and excuse myself from wanting... From dreaming... From doing. These are ...

#My Life as a Human - Entry #13 - Dreamer's Declaration

I have all this nervous energy coursing through my veins. I can feel anticipation, anxiety, fear, restlessness...and Serenity? My mind boggles at the body's capacity to withstand so much at the same time, in a matter of mere minute seconds, balled up and ready to explode. How is this possible? Why is it possible? My mind races, so much to do, so much to get done. My dreams are no longer secrets, my dreams are no longer 'dreams'. They have morphed, capsized and regained consciousness. Life has been breathed...resurrected... I have dreamed, no! I have breathed (exhales) life into my dreams. Finally. Finally I am no longer an escape artist. An escapist of my dreams, of my fears, of failure, of rejection. Finally I am a dreamer realized. Recognized. No longer hospitalized. No longer imprisoned. I have done what was once thought impossible. I have set fire to my dreams. I have let them out and commanded, no! Demanded, that they roam free and wide and fierce! I have declar...
