all that we are

when you want more than you have, you think you need... and when you think more then you want, your thoughts begin to bleed.

what does it take for us to just accept, even embrace all that we have? all being the operative word. all meaning the details that comprise who we are, those internal traits, good and bad. embracing them, celebrating them and believing in the power to release them and open up to new details.

all meaning, the people in our lives, those that bring us experiences good and bad in which we grow and learn from. the notion that everyone in our life is a teacher, for there is always something to learn.

all that we know and more importantly all that we don't. recognizing there are many things we may know, but an infinitely more that we don't. and understanding that they can exist alongside us, within us. inspire us to grow and learn and in no way takes away from the things we do know. being green is okay. how boring it would be if we weren't and yet so many of us, myself included are so afraid to just say i don't know.

i don't know all i wish i did.

so many roads, all have something alluring, but what is real and what is just shiny and shimmering, distracting our focus? blurring the lines between all we were and all we want to be.
