Nothing Extraordinary Could Ever Be Scripted (Video Journal)

I open this video up by talking about managing self care in a healthy manner. I move on to discuss how being honest with myself is valuable. Self deception and lying is exhausting, mentally and emotionally. I am on my way from the mistakes of the past to the ideal version of myself in the future. I never arrive. The growth never ends. Sometimes it feels like my personal narrative is all over the place. In the present moment I can't imagine how all the experiences in my life connect to tell a story. Looking back over my journals brings clarity. I conclude this video by making the bold claim that nothing extraordinary could ever be scripted, citing a variety of practical examples from my own life. Trying to control outcomes doesn't make sense when I think about how little I know about the future.
