Real life

The edge of my universe

Today, I’m tired.

I’m tired of the grey London weather.
I’m tired of the blogosphere.
I’m tired of reading the same old purple prose that doesn’t actually mean anything.
I’m tired of platitudes and hyperbole.
I’m tired of reading about how everyone’s lives are so awesome.
I’m tired of reading about how grateful they are for their awesome lives.
I’m tired of hearing about green juices, cleanses, engagements and weddings.
I’m tired of competitiveness.
I’m tired of requests and demands.
I’m tired of being a slave to my inbox.
I’m tired of waiting for results.
I’m tired of being alone.
I’m tired of being tired.

This morning my therapist remarked that I seem to standing at the edge of my universe, that I’ve gone as far as I can and now I’m ready to cross over into a whole new one. And I nodded and said yes, YES. That’s exactly how it feels.

I’m ready for a new universe of experience. A new world of possibility and inspiration and love. One where I don’t feel tired at all.

I believe it’s possible.

Patience. Patience. Patience.

It’s been snowing and I’m loving it, mainly because the snow reflects the little light we have making it so much easier to endure these grey winter days.

In other news, my soul sister Denise* shared a question on her blog today that piqued my imagination: if you could play a role/character in a ~~movie~~ film, who would it be and why?

You’ll have to head over to her post to see who Denise chose. My immediate thought was Ripley in the Alien films (played by Sigourney Weaver) as she was so strong and resourceful and kick ass! Exactly how I want to feel right now. Had you asked me last year my answer might have been different, but right now Ripley is where I want to be.

Who would you choose? Tell us who and why in the comments below!

* Here’s the video conversation we recorded last year for my virtual book tour — Denise is on page 121 in the book :D
