Life Under Construction

As my life is under construction every experience is like a brick that I the architect of my ability to respond to my ability (Responsibility), can choose to either add to the foundation laid out by the Father of all creation or toss it away in the ruble moving forward. I’m at my best when I take time out for me and get plenty of rest yes going the extra mile in everything I pursue how do I know what I say is true? You may ask it’s not hard or easy to stretch. For many years it was thought that I must beg, perform and conform to the ways other or another mother, father, friend, sister or brother wanted in order to be liked or loved. Without it the big question became am I doing, saying, being enough? Of coarse you are wait! No you’re not because I was then I would have did said and behaved in a way the measured up to the STANDARD. WHO’S STANDARDS? Because if it is not mine then I not only betray me, my self you and I. I betray all the potential of whom and what I could be in 5,10 15 20 years time going up and down the line.
