I received a burst of inspiration mixed with a little insight, from an unlikely source..Chris Crocker. For those not familiar with this instant celebrity I'll happily elaborate.
Chris Crocker is web actor/actress (he usuaslly performs in drag) who makes web viedos that promote not just tolerance, but acceptace of those in the gay community. Chris often uses humor to educate and enlighten his extensive audience.
In one of Chris' videos he talks about finding or rather creating yourself saying:
"Its about creating yourself not finding yourself".
This statement really opened my eyes. Many of us allow ourselves to be molded into a ideal that others have for us, not what we would have for ourselves..unfortunaely we conform often losing ourselves in the process.
Ryan Seacrest said, "Sometimes you have to convey something that you don't actually believe". They both speak about creating an image of oneself.
Its about projecting what I want now before I have attained it. I need to walk, talk, dress, and act the part now. Mold myself into the person I want to be and the image I want to project.
I know that my future is bright; I can see all that is laid out before me, all I have to do is grab it.
