Time To Think

It hurts sitting here
as I have things I want to tell you about
but I know I messed up
This all makes me questions myself
Am I ready?
How would I know?
Will I ever be?
It's hard to change who you are
after being happy after where you've gotten
I'm afraid of change at first
but it doesn't mean I don't go there on my own
I just think there's some rules
you don't understand yet
I can't look at time
and worry about what I'll loose
but that's what I'm doing
I'm rushing through life 
to get away from insanity
but I don't want to create a new one for myself and us

Hey Corinne, Please don't feel alone in this struggle, so many of us have been there, are there, right now, so try to think positive, always speak your truth gently and let the chips fall where they will.

This is quite a chaotic state you describe, Corinne. Unfortunately, many of us can relate to it. And when we spend too much time worrying about what we may lose, we tend to lose the pleasure of living in the moment. Very insightful! Love, Carolyn
