Rug Pulling

Sometimes, following ones dream, is like sitting in a chair, you get comfortable and sit for while and quietly doze off. When you least expect it, someone sneaks in up behind you and pulls the rug out from under the chair. The chair you've become quite complacent in. Once you hit the ground, you start to realize you are your going no where. You stand up shake it off and start moving forward again. I'm thinking it's best not to get to comfortable sitting in any chair, especially since when one is both creative and a dreamer. It doesn't matter where life has taken you, but you do need to work hard to make a dream come true. Work, school and rabbit trails may distract you, so having the rug pulled out is actually wake up call. A friendly reminder, directing you back to what you started out to do. Keep at it daily: write a journal, network, talk to anyone one who will listen, just don't give up. Surround yourself with believers, dreamers, followers and don't give up. Just a note, to the rug pullers, who come from all walks of life in all shapes, sizes and temperments. You may have knocked me or someone else to the ground. But, we are standing on our feet now, just watch and see what we can do.... Olive Branch Creations and other untold stories by, Valaree Weiss
