YOU WANT A PIECE OF ME?!

Waitress: "Are yall done with that?"

I glanced down at the three-quarters that remained of the chocolate molten cake (which I was sharing, f.y.i.),
"No, no!" we reply back with reciprocating attitude.

We were not there for long. After a long road trip, scarfed down dinner to get to dessert. Is it so hard to accept that I want my cake AND I want to eat it too? Philosophically or literally...why get the cake if you ain't gonna eat it?

I might understand if it was almost closing time, or if it was busy or something but why rush us out for no reason? Either at an upscale restaurant, a cafeteria or at home, I've got to be seated comfortable with my drink, movie, or date all ready to go. Every meal should be an experience lol..ok that's extreme but if I am paying for this, let me enjoy it...I guarantee you it will pay you off in the end.
Just saying...

PUZZLED FACE

As we exit the womb that assembled us, the pieces to our life puzzle unscramble into a complex jigsaw and scatter all over destiny's map for us to find over destiny's timeline.

So, what if I don't find all my pieces before I run out of time??

It bothers me.
I believe we each have a purpose - regardless if yours is to make Ronald richer by surviving on his dollar menu diet, or something else of less significance - we were not put here by mistake (even if you were one).

Especially since graduating in Dec. 2008, I have never felt this lost in direction and purpose; I'm concerned that I'm wasting time not knowing and futhermore, not doing enough to figure it out. I've always been fairly spontaneous...one day at a time - laugh it off, drink it down, sleep it off, poop it out, whatever...and I'm having a great time but at the end of the day it's not going to get me what I want for myself. As long as moms n pops called the shots I got the best, and so it would be a complete disservice to them (and to me) not to continue climbing the ladder & just settle.

This world offers so much to do, so many places to see, and people to meet - Would you really want to miss out cuz you were sitting on your ass facebooking? Or hanging with people who stunt your growth? Or waiting finger-crossed for someone to fall back in love with you? I obsess that I won't live my life to the fullest...

We don't, but destiny and fate do, know what the final product of the puzzle is supposed to look like; however, we get to decide where we begin looking for the pieces and which one we want (or need) to find next...that much I know.

So, what if I don't find all my pieces before I run out of time? Do I fail? Or do i just shrug my shoulders and say "Well, at least I had one hell of a time searching!!"

To allow me to sleep tonight, then I come to the conclusion that if so much is pre-determined it would only make sense to believe we run out of time only when we set the last piece in place...
