Starting over is not as easy as sneaking an unwanted piece into the “draw” pile during a board game.

There’s no dumping all the dice back into the container and going for a new shake and roll.

To start over as a human, you must either die and then be reborn;

Or you must be willing to throw everything, yourself included, off the edge and into the abyss

And hope you hold enough strength of character and willpower to survive.

Once surrendered to the unknown, few are willing and even less are able to make the arduous climb back up.

There’s no way to make the journey without becoming bloodied, bruised and broken.

When you get back up on your feet after such a depleting battle, everything will look different.

Your world and the people in it will be different. You will be different.

You’ll have the rarest of opportunities in the human experience ready to be embraced:

The gift and ability to reinvent. To start from scratch.

How will you celebrate your chance at a new beginning?

Falling back into old patterns and doing what you’ve always done?

Or, by being BOLD. Being BRAVE. Being VIBRANT.

Those who know what it is to fight for a second chance and who refuse to squander it.

These are the humans I crave.

I want to lick their brain ripples and inhale their heart’s vibrations.

SET MY SOUL ON FIRE.
