You’re writing your autobiography. What’s your opening sentence?
“I didn’t ask for a dramatic life
but apparently, I was cast as the main character anyway.”
.
No audition.
No rehearsal.
Just life handing me a script
with seventeen plot twists
and absolutely no instructions.
.
I try doing everything at once.
Write something meaningful.
Fix my future.
Organize my chaos.
And somehow remember
why I walked into the room.
.
My brain is a busy marketplace
ideas shouting,
dreams bargaining,
doubts offering discounts.
.
People say,
“Take it slow.”
.
Slow?
My thoughts run marathons
while I’m still tying my shoes.
.
Some days I’m confident
I’ll conquer the world.
Other days I’m Googling
“how to get life together in 5 easy steps.”
.
But here’s the secret:
.
Between the confusion,
the unfinished plans,
and the dramatic internal monologues,
something beautiful keeps happening.
.
I grow.
I learn.
I try again.
.
So yes,
maybe I didn’t ask for this role.
.
But if life insists
I’m the main character…
.
I might as well
play it well.
