From where I stand today, I see that I still want perfection. I still long to be better and more – than what, I do not know. Even though I was born in China and have stood at the center of the world at Cape Three Points, Ghana, I still feel I’ve been nowhere. The lack I feel is endless. I recognize that. I accept them. They are just feelings. They are not me. I am whole as is. I am where I’m suppose to be. Here. Now.
I know that now. Had I recognize that years ago, what would I tell my younger self? I don’t know and if I did, would I believe myself? So from where I am standing or sitting today, it is best to get up and get on with life. If I had known better, I know I would have done better. If I could, I would, wouldn’t you?
Thank you again to Susannah Conway and Kat McNally for your prompts.


You are exactly where God wants you to be. 🙂
Carpe Diem, Lily.
Thank you! 🙂

I know the feeling of lack you describe so well, Lily. It’s deceiving and I think you are so wise for just letting it be what it is i.e. just a feeling. x
Thank you, Kat!
