how big are your BOOTS?!



Sometimes.
life wears BIG BOOTS.
i swear they are potentially size 26.
{that is big}
they fit snug and secure and know EXACTLY how to STOMP.
hard.
 RIGHT on top of your head....
or maybe even 
RIGHT IN FRONT of you so you fall into this abyss of a "boot print".

random.
but I KNOW 
but you can relate.
right?

you are just flawlessly meandering along.
and then WHAM.
without warning....everything FALLS APART.
case and point. 
BOOT PRINT #1.

so....
 you dig or climb your way out of the "HOLE" you had NO IDEA was coming....
it seems so completely foreign...
impossible to overcome. and just plain unfair. 

what you need to know is that WHILE you are being stomped on....
when things come at you from NO-WHERE - and take you DOWN
....hard.... 
YOU are also leaving YOUR MARK.

YOU have BOOTS of your own, baby.
your integrity.
your persistence.
your endurance.
your love.
your wit.
your EVERYTHING....
BIG HUGE BOOTS.
BIGGER than LIFE.
i promise.

lace em' up.
pull them on.


and don't let life get you down.
you are here to...
shine.
climb.
higher and higher...
and emerge.
consistently and persistently.

BIGGER than you have EVER BEEN.

YOU choose your "BOOTS"
so..
CHOOSE BIG.
&
fill em' up.
with style.
all your own.
make YOUR mark.
life belongs to YOU.
bigger than ever.
emerge.
forget the prints others think they can leave.
make your own.
THOSE are the ones that matter.

You my friend some how, some way, push me right back where I need to be. Today I feel stomped on. Tomorrow I am going to stomp and leave a mark. It might just be my shoe print at the gym, but I am fine with that. :) Today at the gym I was mad and hurt and didn't stomp enough to accomplish why I was there. Thank GOD I get another chance tomorrow! <3
