Some Day

I do not want to be everybody. Everybody says, "Some day I'll do this." "Some day I'll do that." You know what I'm talking about. You've got them. I've got them too. "Some day I'll go to Europe." "Some day I'll live in New York City or Chicago." "Some day I'll be able to sight read." "Some day I will be a bum on the streets because I've chosen music as my career." (^_^) There's safety in saying 'some day'. You still have the idea and hope that maybe it will happen. You can make exciting plans that are just vague enough to keep that hope alive. But for most people...some day never comes. I'm going to Italy next summer to study abroad. Not some day. No more waiting. Now. And believe me, I don't have enough money to go. And to spend two months away from all those I love in a place and culture I've never experienced before is terrifying. But it's thrilling too. So what's stopping me? What's stopping you? There will always be obstacles to every single hope and dream and plan that we make in life. Whether it be means or time or whatever little detail we can conceive of to stand in our way. Stop making up road blocks. Tear them down. And make some day...Today.
