Wanna Be A Rockstar?!

I have a story.

I really do. I have things that have happened to me that paralyzed me. Things that I could scrape up from my past and moan and groan about for days.

I have heart break that shattered my soul and created ill illusions of LOVE for years and probably life times to come.

I have things I'm not proud of and people who have shit on me for sure.

I have a story I could tell.


But the only way I can live the life I dream of, is to let it all go.
Better yet, bury it in some landfill somewhere.
Then walk away from it for good.

Who-what-and tragedy made me the rockstar I am today.
Yep, that's true.
But a pile of memories is all it's worth now. Nothing more then that.

So you wanna be a rockstar too?

Stop telling old stories.

Start creating new ones and sing them acapella.
Doesn't matter if they're only make-believe.
Life has a funny way of transforming our stories into our reality.

Why keep repeating the ones that put you in your state of misery in the first place?

Grab a shovel instead...start digging baby! The world needs more rockstars like you.

Ah, thank you! Sometimes it gets old to see everyone's drama posts, and it seems that everyone gets on a kick when one person posts!

YES!! And the very first step to letting go of them is loving each and every one of those things, wholeheartedly, because they all brought you to HERE. When you decide to love them, their power to hurt you simply disintegrates. Love, love, love! -- Paula
