I just had an epiphany - curious if there would be a market for anyone interested in finding their purpose/sharing their story through writing prose. I wrote this post yesterday and shared it on my social media - it was vulnerable and deep yet it gives me this hard to describe feeling when people resonate with my work… I’ve written since I was 14 and have had many amazing opportunities yet just thought of coaching people through this medium.
I posted the same picture on Instagram that came up in my memories yet wrote this👇
I posted this 1 year ago today yet I was living in vain…
As sexxxy as I may have seemed, I was living in pain.
I created a false reality “it’s not that bad”
Whoa was I wrong…
I had a medical issue that went on for far too long.
I wanted to feel like I had it all -
Making coffee for the rich and famous and going to UCLA.
I worked Hard to get there, yet little did people know I was struggling everyday.
Living the rat race, I told people I was working towards my dreams as I didn’t want to look like a fool.
Yet I was distracting myself from what really mattered as I ended up basically dropping out of school.
They say the worst kind of betrayal is lying to yourself in order to win,
So I was giving into my vices with a goal - to numb the part of me that would sin.
My health was dwindling away
Yet I pushed myself to go on.
I thought and told people that One Day I’ll be able to sing my own song.
Well, that one day is Today.
Instead of attempting to ignore the deepest part of myself,
I’ve begun to realize the potential of my immense inner wealth.
I’ve learned a valuable lesson - to take care of my Health,
For it can destroy what I’ve worked so hard to achieve with stealth.
Instead of living a life of deception,
It feels so good to have a clear perception.
As I’ve begun to listen to my body to tell me where to go.
Although I can’t physically work yet, I’m trusting my newfound instincts to let my life begin to flow…
Finding balance again -
This is just the beginning,
As I’ve come back to what I love to do,
Write
It feels like I’m winning
I’m learning to cherish this life and what I have.
As I enter the unknown,
I’m just excited to have the courage to delve deep and discover how much I have Grown…
With the ego left behind, I’m able to step into my Power
As I’m becoming more and more Aware by the hour.
I’m putting my intentions out there in the universe,
So hopefully some can resonate with my verse.
I wish to Inspire and make an impact through my writing
And find my purpose helping others, as it fees enticing.
One year from now, I will be able to write another page,
Then I’ll have another perspective to gage
As I wish to One Day spread my message and be on stage…
