The Glass Ceiling

I saw a few spiders in the house last week. Reminded me to spray again. I had an interesting weekend, topped off with a message from a guy who showed interest in dating me a while back. I had forgotten about him until he said this morning that he still wanted his books–two years and four books later. Reminded me to update my status and attitude to reflect my strict No BS policy. The song 99 Problems keeps coming to me the last few days, reminding me of all that I’m responsible for, all that I have yet to do, and the limits placed upon me by circumstances and timing. Silly distractions from people who don’t fit into my future will continue to come, but it’s my choice to exterminate them and keep it moving, stopping to smell the roses and peer through the glass often.

I often find myself looking out the window, peering out the skylight, or the sunroof dreaming of financial freedom, love, companionship with someone of like mind and determination, while praying for a spirit of peace and gratitude because though the glass physically separates me from the beauty I desire, I can still see through it. I can still form distinct visual attachments to those dreams. And just as easily, I can step outside and touch any part of it. See, it’s about focus and perspective. I have no intention of feeling that the things outside my reach will always remain so. A few steps separate me from all that matters to me, so I’ll keep the glass as clear as possible until I can open the door and walk into my fulfillment. The glass ceiling is my ally, as long as I keep it free from debris and messy build-up.

Just a mid-day message about perspective. Somebody obviously needed to hear it cause I was compelled to share it. As you were…
