DESIRE...

 DESIRE...

Someone once said that whatever we desire, is a reflection of just who we are. I wonder if that is true?

In a way, whatever we aspire to, and give our time to, becomes an image of the real inner us.  For example, a person I know, who will not be named, always had a desire to act, to become an actress.  

She loved to behave in an almost exagerated way, with gestures and loud laughing and having fun. Even when she sneezed or coughed, it  would be heard, loud and clear.  And of course, she was brilliant at emphasing each word as she spoke.  We thought it was funny, then she won best actress when taking part in local plays.

Yes, she became famous.  The laugh was on those who laughed at her.

So, good sense would say, be careful what you desire because it will become you.

DILIGENT

 DILIGENT...

The Dictionary says that DILIGENT means hard-working / being conscientious. That certainly means a lot. No room for half-measures.

I feel reprimanded because I often 'cut corners' in doing a job of sorts, just to have it finished. This might explain why I still have not earned a Pulitzer for Literature!

Then again, often in relation to Creative writing, one responds to inspiration in the moment, knowing that the work in only a first-draft. and will require a redraft. 

On this happy note I will redeem myself.  However, in many ways in our daily life, we are invited to respond to others and learn to build / reflect and add to what is presented to us.  In a Godly sense, we are constantly being inspired to become more than what we are, especially in relation to loving others.
