never mind the mess...

"you inspire more people than you realize.  never mind the mess...keep being the message." 
🤍 -c. 

often, we find ourselves distracted from what we are meant to become...what we are meant to focus on.  there are so many things competing for our attention.  ever wonder why that is the case?

maybe it's because there is something earth-shatteringly different about you.  
something that is meant to birthed from you and your experiences that can only be delivered by you.
and maybe...just maybe, by distracting you, the very people who are supposed to benefit from the very message that only you can deliver will become stagnated as well.  

thus, a perpetual cycle of unfulfilled promises and dreams can occur all because we allow proverbial mess to distract us from staying on task and remaining steadfast to our journeys.  

maybe we need to do the inner work of healing.
maybe it's the song we need to write.
or maybe it's that child we know we need to say an encouraging word to.
...maybe it's just being who we are aloud so that our influence can be felt by those around us.
only we know what the "little", seemingly insignificant thing we must do is.  

but like a snowball, when we ignore that one little thing, it becomes normal to continue ignoring the nagging idea of doing something that we know we must.

and just like that...the fire becomes a little dimmer. 
bit
by
bit.

your light is meant to be bright.  never discount the value of what you can contribute to the world.
