All you have to do is ask

Jen O. (http://mytornadoalley.com/ ) prompted me to write about “All you have to do is ask” – by the way her entry this week really got me.  I asked “Disease” to write about the one that got away – see it here:  http://chamindrah.wordpress.com/2011/08/13/the-one-that-got-away/

Thank you, Indie Ink, for giving me this chance.  I gotta get inside my own head for a bit and not participate in the writing challenge, but I know you will be waiting for me when I return.  www.indieink.org

ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS ASK

Where are you going?  What are you doing?  Is this how you want it to be happening in two years?  Two months?

When is the last time you took the time to think about that?  Maybe this morning, maybe last year? 

Why does it matter?  Life gets so busy, it doesn’t matter how many kids or bedrooms you have.  You adapt your business to that level.  But I’m not more busy than you are.  And talking about it doesn’t make you a better, busier person.  What is going on inside your head?

All you have to do is ask.  Ask yourself if you are happy.  Ask yourself what you can make better.  Not better homemade cookies.  Or better Halloween costumes.  Where is your focus?  What is in your heart, or at least that part of your head that makes you think you are thinking with your heart.

Write it down.  Write down what comes up.  Put it on paper and let yourself believe that you can do it. Don’t wait for someone else to ask you.  Just ask yourself.  All you have to do is ask.
