50odd.
(If you didn’t know already).
It all started with a conversation.
Waiting.
Me: So; what is it then?
Them: What’s what?
Me: What’s the thing you feel you were born to do?
Them: What do you mean?
Me: You know. What’s your ‘thing’?
Them: (Eyes widen. Arms open. Back straightens. They smile): Aah! My ‘thing’. Well… then they tell me.
Me: Wow! So why aren’t you doing it then?
Them: I’m waiting.
Me: You’re waiting?
Them: Yes. I’m waiting. To do what I feel I was born to do. I’m waiting.
Me: What are you waiting for?
Them: I don’t know.
Me: (silence).
Them: (silence).
Me: (sniff).
Them: (silence).
You.
So.
If ‘you’.
Are like ‘them’.
Playing the waiting game.
Wake up.
Because this is not a game.
This is your life.
