The "P" Word

Remember as children, even sometimes now as adults, we were told, "You have to crawl before you walk." Boy, I now have a deeper understanding of what my elders were trying to convey to me.

Everything in life is a process. As my BFF says, "The process, the "P" word we all love to hate." During my times of intro- and retrospection, I arrived at this place in my life in stages. There were a serious of events that occurred to either move, lead, drag, or catapult me from one stage to another. Unbeknownst to me at the time, all of the events were working together for me to be right here, right now.

I know that you have probably said at one time or another, "time is of the essence." Well, time is of the essence, is actually a legal phrase. In layman's terms, it means that two parties have agreed upon specified time and dates to complete an assigned task and any delay of completion will be grounds for cancelling the agreement (The Legal Dictionary/Free Dictionary). We often use this phrase within our daily functions, but we must remember that everything takes time. Cultivating a loving marriage, earning a master's degree, building a successful business, grieving the loss of a loved one, losing weight, healing a broken leg, etc. The list goes on.  

Time is of the essence if you are using it unproductively. So, I encourage you to use your time wisely and trust the process of life as you discover who you are, your place in the world, and even in this global village. 

Why?

Because you were created with greatness!
