Oh how I love Wishcasting Wednesday! Today's prompt is "What is your greatest wish?" This one brought up an immediate response for me. My greatest wish is to be a bright light in the world.
It is also the scariest wish I could make for myself.
I've spent my whole life being timid. Never wanting to be in the spotlight. I was that girl in the library reading during lunch because I had no one to sit with. I missed out on Prom and Graduation because I didn't have it in me to go.
I've grown so much since then, but I still have things holding me back. I don't know if those things are an integral part of who I am, or things that I need to overcome to be my true self.
How do you balance who you were meant to be with who you want to be? Or is there really a difference? It just feels like I was born a Mouse and now I am doing all of this work to become a Lion. I almost feel like I am being disloyal to who I really am to become something I want to be, but something I am inherently not.
Whoa, did this just get deep and rambly.
I suppose I just need to believe that I was born the Lion and everything else is just challenges and obstacles to being my true self. It's all in your perspective right?
So, I think now my greatest wish is to have the courage and dedication to be the bright light that I know I can be. To help and inspire. To be creative and artistic. To share myself, my heart, and my gifts and to make a difference.
That's a pretty great wish.
