Doing What I Shouldn’t

I am doing what I shouldn’t be doing.

I am spending my time doing things that I love. I am making things that excite me instead of the things I should be making.

I’m ignoring the to-do list in favor of the bucket list.

I’m not working on being what I think I should be and focusing much more on what I know I am.

I’m being creative, I dreaming big and I am making things that cause me to giggle like I’m 5 and squeal with excitement.

I’m breaking away from schedules in favor of authentic sharing and collaboration.

I’m not hustling, bossing, fixing or wearing a crown in favor of being my unique self instead.

It felt wrong at first. Like I should be doing my homework before I go play outside.

Why did I believe I had to do that now?

I didn’t do it then.

I was happy then.

I was free then.

Here’s to making a mess and leaving it.

 

Until next time…
