It was thought EXACTLY like this and some tough and true words of honest friendship from a certain two brained cylon that woke me up. This was not the same guy who was known to be able to do anything in college. The one who was fearless. I was mere steps away from being a hermit afraid of all. I went after my dreams with new vigor.
I have wanted to write and speak publicly and change the direction a bit of an industry that needs training. Well, I got three articles under my belt now, several speaking engagements with good reports, and more down the way. Even had me a little feeler from a magazine. All I had to do was get past this poem...not so easy. It consumed me. Wanting more and reaching for it despite setbacks are two different matters.
