From Support to Completion

It's often amazing where support comes from in your life.  There you are thinking that you are all alone and then you find yourself in a place where people are really concerned about you and your goals and suddenly the things that seemed impossible are suddenly possible.  I met a wonderful person whom I never expected to meet. I made a random comment and then support I didn't even know I needed or wanted was there.  I'm always supported by my friends and family, but there are some things that are so personal, that you don't always share them with John Q Public, because they might think you weird or strange. The harder one is when they think that your dreams, plans and aspirations are too lofty for you to achieve.

But what happens when those dreams plans or aspirations don't meet the ideas and thoughts of others in society? What happens when in a world full of squares you are a hexagon? The world is built on logic and reason, but here you are with all of your sides that need to be seen and explored. What happens then? Whom should you allow to guide you on the journey? Should you follow convention or should you allow yourself to dare to dream big?

Support is important in life. We will often fail if there is no cheerleader or ass whipper.  We need them both. We need the person to crack the whip to remind us when we forget of what our goals are and what they mean to us. Then we need our supporters to buoy us up when we flag or fall.

This arc in my life is an interesting one. I dont' need this arc. It's not going to make me richer, happier or more popular. So why am I embarking upon it?  Well to see if I can.  To see if I could contribute to a world which I love and enjoy. We all have a voice and its our duty and obligation to share that voice, especially if it's a contralto in a world full of alto's and baritones.

So I'm finding my voice ...it's a staring it's ... tenor.
