Do You See What I See?


Hidden in secret passages of life lives a young mind battered by the trial of time and life and not sure of what direction to propel the energy harnessed in the straps of fear. Traveling amongst uncharted stars, head way above the clouds mapping skies mentally unvisited, unable to escape bondage of fear thoughts flood the mind, what do you do when your dreams are in plain view, you believe in them but not sure if they believe in you?

Is it inconceivable that a mind aesthetically sound be crippled by the mystery of what could and might not be.

Funny, i started this posting on 10/13/09 and I couldn't find the words to complete it.

Here goes, nearly a year later and the journey has progressed... It's amazing what others see in us and we ourselves fail to see. What if I told you that you are capable of greatness? What if I said that the only thing in between you and your destiny is the limiting force you've placed on your life? Could you subscribe to such a notion? If I asked you to sit and have a conversation with yourself about what things are scaring you to the point of inactivity how comfortable would you be with doing it?

We're never taught to get to know ourselves, where we truly want to go and life and what it takes to get there. Yes, we're asked, "What do you want to do when you grow up?" But prior to that we should be asked, what kind of person do you want to be in life? What type of legacy do you want to leave behind?

On this continual journey I've been afforded the opportunity to meet some interesting people, some left great jewels of knowledge and other left scarring reminders, but both taught lessons that can't be priced. While learning these lessons I learned more and more about me and ended up learning that I never took the time to figure out who Chaddrian wanted to be or how he wanted to get there. As I took the time to figure out the things within me it drastically changed the manner in which I dealt with others. Getting to know myself and essentially falling in love with myself allowed me to become aware of my value.

...Value....

Value is essential, once you view yourself as valuable anything is possible! Finding true love, getting that dream job, even being yourself OUT LOUD!

I encourage everyone to take a little time to get to know themselves, stare in the mirror, get familiar with what you see, sit in a dark silent room, get familiar with your thoughts, and write out the desires of your heart as if they have already happened, get familiar with your goals.

As for now and the rest of my life, I'm no longer afraid of the unknown, I operate in positivity and perspective and as @JTwitty on twitter says "Dreams DO come True! Imagination is Everything... It's as simple as ABC #AskBelieveCreate... GO!"

Looking forward to my further growth, no going backwards! I've deactivated the reverse in this ride!
