Work In Progress

This day has been kind of strange for me. I've been slacking for the past two weeks. Not just in one area of my life, but everywhere. I go to the gym, but don't work out as hard as normal. I write my blog, yet I've skipped a few days. The writing I was doing for a personal project has fallen to the waist side. And until today, I had no urge to fix the problem, even though I recognized there was one.

For some reason, I feel I've opened up to the subtle signs that God and the universe are sending me. I was jamming to a mix cd I've had for a long time and the cd started skipping, playing one line repeatedly. "We all show growth before its done." Now, I know the words to that song by heart, but that was the first time they sank in.

On top of that, I hit the barber for a cut and we wound up talking about the dubious nature of the media. This struck me because we never talk about things like that. Our conversations are always light and superficial. He told me that its time for some of our people to get in the media industry and write and tell the stories that effect us. Before I thought, I blurted out, "Well, I'm going to get on there and change that." That was the first time I became passionate in conversation about my goals and dreams.

After leaving, I was in CVS and was singing softly to a song and a random person tells me that I need to do it loudly because there some people without a voice. I know he couldn't be talking about mt singing because while it can hit notes, its just mediocre.
So I'm taking all of these things as a sign that God isn't finished with me yet. I've still got more growing to do. I have to get my Daft Punk on, do whatever I'm on this earth to do, do it harder, better, faster,stronger. I can't wait for tomorrow because its not promised. Now is the time. The message has been there. I'm just finally open to receive it. Don't trip on me, I just stumbled, but I'm getting it together.
