The leading role in the story of my life

I may have written about her once or twice, I may have even posted a photo or two of her, but today I’d like to take a moment and thank her, once again.

So many thoughts of late, thoughts of re-locating to LA to chase a life-long dream, thoughts of leaving a secure job after 12 years, thoughts of leaving so many loved ones in various states over the years. So many memories, so many stories. Here is another one, Cheers! Please remember, this is not a love story - this is MY love story.

We often think of our lives and how we’ve lived it, what we did wrong, where we should of done something different, that one time … everything in our life story is egocentric, after all it’s OUR life story right?? Wrong. So many movies I’ve watched where 2 or more individuals come together to accomplish amazing things. Then there’s that one movie where one person stands out amongst the others - as the leading role. In the story of my life, Kimberly has clearly defined herself as the leading role.

If you want to be king of your world, first make her the Queen of her world.

Kimberly has been such an amazing influence on me. She sees me, and she knows how to keep me grounded when I’m flying like a kite in a very crazy windstorm. YES, she is the person holding the string while I fly aimlessly in the sky, trying to stay afloat with the entire world crashing around me. OK, now that you have that visual in your head - some crazy kite that looks like me flying in a crazy ass windstorm. Get rid of it, and think of this - A warm summer day, not too warm and not too cold, the wind is blowing gently, and there is a kite, and as you follow the string down, there is a simply stunning and confident woman holding onto it, effortlessly. Enjoying the beauty of it all, not a care in the world.

Do you see what I see?

We are all kites in the sky of our lives. We all deserve to have someone holding on to the strings. We all deserve to hold onto someone’s strings while they float around for a while. We all deserve happiness in the balance of it all. 

 

NOTE: I am now at the point of my story telling to leave the interpretation up to you, I hope you enjoyed our little interaction, I enjoyed sharing it. I float effortlessly in the sky knowing full well the Queen of my world is holding tight onto my string.
