Dear Diary, That's Life

This isn’t the place I wanted to be in my life.

This isn’t what I used to dream about.

This is not the person I hope to be.

I’m not a top rider, I will never be in the Olympics, I will never be a professional, I will never be a rock star, a vet, any of the things I’ve dreamed and schemed up as I grew.

I probably won’t ever meet my favorite band or anybody that I aspire to be like, but we live with the cards we are dealt. My hands got at least one ace, I’ll just have to bluff myself through the rest of the game and play my cards right until I can get to where I want to be.

Someday, I will jump a four foot jump again.

Someday, someone will love me for me.

Someday, I’ll be a professional wrestler.

Someday, I’ll be the person I want to be.

Someday, just not today, but it’s a start, because life starts now.
