Excuses

So after watching that show yesterday, I realize how many excuses I have padded my life with. It's as if my life were that fragile and special and I have had to be so careful with it, like very fragile packing glassware, wrapped up carefully, put carefully into the box with cardboard dividers so they don't touch... WHO CARES?

I have excuses for everything... why I don't exercise... “It's just not my thing!”
Why I smoke... “because it's there in front of me all the time...”
Why I disengage socially...“I don't know anyone here and people haven't been very welcoming”
???!!!
I have had every opportunity and still do on a daily basis to engage with other people and to rekindle old friendships and establish new ones.

I always say... someday.

Today is someday.
