What was on my mind today

Everyone has a story.
Your life, your journey as a person, that is your story. We all have ups and downs. Conflicts, whether with others, or within ourselves. Our story, our journey is being molded, it is happening each and everyday. Through our journey, we develop character, personality, perception, thoughts, goals, and dreams. 
Everyone has a unique story. Nobody's journey is exactly the same.
So what has brought you to where you are? Is it one thing? Is it everything? Everything ties together somehow, doesn't it?
A domino effect. a ripple.
You think to yourself, well if that hadn't have happened... whether good or bad, it would have changed the course of your journey in such an extreme way.
Sometimes, it is necessary to stop and think about this story.
This story that is yours.
How would you share it with people?
How could you possibly explain to them who you are without explaining all of those ripples? Every domino that fell.
Have you ever played dominos? It seems so easy, just match the dots. But when you think about it, when you really pay attention. You see how the dots, they are all connected, just so.
I would play by myself when I was little, connecting the dominos to make a giraffe. I don't know why a giraffe, it was just how I always did it. I would do it until I used every single domino. If there was one left that would not result in the creation of a giraffe, I started over. They all had to connect correctly.
Your dominos, your story, it all connects. It is creating something wonderful. It is creating you. It is making you the person you are becoming every day.
Embrace your story.
Read your story.
Know that your story is valuable.
It is beautiful.
It is only yours.
If you are unhappy with how your story is going?
Change it.
Put that domino somewhere else.
Get a different one.
Try again.
Try until you feel it is connecting just so.
Shaping up to be the life you want.
The life you deserve.
This is your story.
Get writing.
