Sometimes the things we truly desire, even unbeknownst to our conscience, can really fall in your lap.
We've all heard that "where there is a will, there is a way." But what if we just threw our fate up to the universe and let it happen organically? Life began for me when I came to New York. The dream to be somewhere bigger was always present, I just never knew how to go about it or was very lazy to move. It seems that I had to be moved, like a fore greater than my own has strategically placed me where I am supposed to be, but it was up to me to move forward. I'm the horse led to water but it's up to me to drink from it.
I would never have left my shit jobs had I not been fired. I wouldn't have stopped working for Elizabeth had she not gone crazy at my work. I wouldn't have left Sirene if Jeane and I didn't have that fight (the subject of dating Jason being the catalyst). I wouldn't have lost the weight had I never met with Rachel to work out with her and have her show me how to be healthier. I wouldn't have gotten to play with this iPad (that I had been thinking for so long about buying) had I not dropped it at work (this belongs to my boss).
Fate? Blessings? Coincidence? Maturity? Dumb luck? I like to think I've had good karma. And every day, it never fails to amaze me how lucky I do think I have it. I have very little to complain about. I don't have everything I could want, but I have all my needs met, and who can say even that?
love,
new york,
