Real talk: Leave trouble(s) in the shower.

Real talk: Leave trouble(s) in the shower.

Trouble was acting a fool trying to cause holy havoc in my life. Ha! I do NOT have time for trouble to be making all this trouble.

In times past, I would have been all up in my feelings. I would have fussed with God. I would have yelled at The Universe. I would have wanted to tell Life to kick rocks!

I would have pouted, shouted and done EVERYTHING except for what was needed:

Leave trouble(s) in the shower!

That’s what I did, this morning. I drowned my sorrows, in the midst of some lovely soap suds. I sang, horribly, as I squished trouble, down the drain. I tapped my foot, all upside trouble’s head and told it to get gone. I got thangs to do.

I got about being about it. I did some thangs. I laughed. I worked. Hard. I worked hard hard. Til hard said ‘hey’ and ‘ow’. Told hard to leave me be, then or get used to me kicking hard all upside it’s hide.

Life is short.

Yea, tough times happen. Life can be terribly hard. So what? Don’t fall for the world’s feedback to run from hard as fast as you can. The ONLY way to learn, is to try. Fail. Try. Fail. Try. Fail. Try. Succeed kinda/sorta. Try. Rinse. Repeat. Simple.

Easy?

No.

So what?

Get on with living. You have things to do. You have dreams to chase down. You have laughs to have. You have folk to love and to hold. You have folks who are waiting to love you. Get going.

going with you,

Cassandra
