Enough Is Enough

The ego in me challenges everything.
Wanting more—a human condition I’m sure—fuels fires; it also destroys people. 
Idealistic and passionate I sought to follow my dreams and refused to compromise my goals. I set the bar high and tenaciously jumped each hurdle.
Finally, I arrived at an invisible finish line of understanding: you will never be finished.
Now, how do I cope with the ravenous desire to acquire more; achieve more; create more?
The answer is often as stunningly clear as a flawless diamond (as precious, too); Be Present. 
Then, as dark as a deep sea expedition without a working light—I am lost again.

Deep breaths in and out return me to the Now and I remember: when I foucus on what I love; trust in my Faith; release my fear; and create—I will continue to receive opportunities to work and inspire. Just as it has for the past 40 years of my life (24 of them as a professional), the path will guide me.
