Tick Tock, Watch the Clock

Timing is everything.  That old adage stands the test of ole Big Ben over and over again. 

As the clock ticks forward, I have a lot of decisions to make.  When to jump in to this Sweet Dream of mine, Where to live it and How to make it happen.

Of course, not everything is within my control.   In fact, much of it is not.  If it were, life would be much simpler.  But it wouldn't be much fun either.  Without the unexpected moments and emotions...how bland would life's palate be? 

It is the unknown, the hopefulness, the Possibility which keeps us alive inside.  And that which makes each bite that much more delicious.

For all of the uncharted journeys I have yet to take...the course is slowly being set.  Plans are in perpetual motion to eventually stop in one particular spot.  While Where is still anyone's guess...it won't be too long before I begin to choose my route.  There are many factors to consider - that make this a finicky task.

The question is will it all happen in time for my life to fall, once and for all, Perfectly into place?

At this moment in time, I am staring at life's Automatic Watch, wishing I could turn it to Manual.  If only to clock ahead to what my Life will hold.  

I suppose, like all of us, I just want to know it will all turn out alright.  That it will be full of love and laughter and family.  

What more can anyone ask for...?

 

All we can do is follow our hearts...because the heart will never lead you astray.

Sweet Dreams, 

Me
