Another day, another life

OK, enough with the love vibes and all. Friday was been a day full of stress and good things. I had the craziest day of my life today. First of all, we couldn’t get on the stage for rehearsals because some guys had left behind the sets from a show that happened the day before. Did I mention that it was Valentine’s the day before? Stress!!! It was so bad that we finished doing our lights twenty minutes before our performance. We hadn’t gotten enough time and money to do proper costumes so we had to improvise. The costumes worked up until the moment when the suspenders fell apart. You should have been there to see the look on the face of yours truly. Anyhow, I goofed on quite a bit of the piece and that wasn’t even the half of it. The music went all haywire. Stress!!!!!!!!! The strange thing is that the audience loved it! Weird, huh? So much for being the first on stage. I must admit it was a lot, actually miles better than the original choreography. I was tons better than my first effort at the Danceweek last year.
Everyday I learn new things about who I am as an individual, performer, team member. There is so much more of who I am and the person God created and intended for me to be. My purpose is becoming clearer to me each day making it all the more easier for me to step into it. When I grow up, I want to be a… good father, husband, friend, brother, manager, performer, and all the things He has purposed for me to be.
I have tried my level best to invest in my talents and myself in as many people and avenues as possible with the hope that I can acquire more to make Him known to all. Above all, I want to know Him more so that I can be in a better position to share my experiences of the greatest friend and God of all.
Later,

Musings

Why is it that everytime we find ourselves in a situation that is too good to be true, we become skeptical? We deny what we feel in a hope that if indeed we block out these feelings we will get back to a sense of normalcy. How foolish we can be at times. To deny what we feel is to deny ourselves, to say that we are not what we think. Cogito, ergo sum! Another man, wrote, Je pense donc je suis! Unless we accept who we are, we are in danger of becoming our own enemies, adversaries of liars and foes to our true self. What then? Does this mean that we should succumb to feeble vibes or must we listen to the voice of reason as we do? Fear! A force so potent it cripples our thought processes and disrupts our creative self. DOUBT! To do so is to quesiton the things that we know, feel, think, love. To doubt is to forget that we have overcome before and have the potential to do it all over again. The only thing greater than fear and doubt- for doubt is borne of fear- is love, for perfect love drives out all fear. LOVE! Oh, how wonderful it is to love and even more wonderful, to be loved back. Love inspires faith, faith instills hope which is the foundation upon which dreams are built. LOVE! To be loved, to be loved, O what a feeling to be loved... Maybe I am in LOVE!!!!
