Just the Start (2.20.12)

Someone once told me that it's never too late to start following your dreams. It took me awhile to realize that they were right. I spent years hiding away from the world because I wasn't exactly sure what my true "dream" was. Being unsure of my future, and not trying to find it, caused me to just go through the motions of day to day life thinking that one day it will all make sense. Each day was getting worse. I felt like I was slowing deteriorating and being placed next to the trash can never even making it to the dumpster. There was something that needed to change. Finally after many tiny baby steps of realizing what I want and working towards it I made a decision. I quit following the rules of the modern world to take on my dream of being a musician. Yes, a musician. It's only been about a week and I feel great. I know the path ahead will be a challenging one and each day is uncertain, but that's what makes it exciting. Really exciting and freakin' scary! The fate of my future lies in my own hands now. Hard to believe. It's up to me if it turns out amazing or a disappointment. None the less there is a new road that I'm traveling on. Every day is a new journey. And that is just the start..... - Tajlyn
