A fresh start

People come into our lives for a reason, right? So instead of wondering why things happen the way they do, I'm going to accept them for what they are. I'm going to try and take my life day by day, moment to moment, as hard as it may be for me since I worry about tomorrow, yesterday. I'm going to trust and have faith that everything is happening just as it should. I'm going to let go and let God lead me where He will. It's a new day. It's a new Keith.

But what do I know?

I know that this isn't working

because

it shouldn't be this hard, this soon.

I know that this isn't right

because

my gut never lies.

I know that I have to move on

because

you give me no other option

but what do i know?

i'm only twentyone

I'm crazy. And I'm okay with that.

are you?

throw away the directions

You tell me, "It's easy to get lost." You don't know how lost I can get. I tell myself "Hold on tight." Because when I let go, it can get scary. When I let go I lose control. I'm starting to realize this is okay, and maybe even necessary.

I'm starting to think maybe you find yourself this way. You have to let go to figure out where it is you need to be.

dive in

I'm ready to dive in to life, are you? I'm ready to forgive myself for past mistakes. I'm ready to take a risk, a chance. I'm ready for new beginnings. I'm ready for you.

So I plan to go back to when I was four and fearless, when I would dive head first into my bathtub, minus the stitches part this time.

I'm diving head first into life and I hope you'll do the same.
