Ellipsis

An ellipsis, the elusive dot...dot...dots that often times ends a sentence, stands as an implication of something more to come... The ellipsis lingers indefinitely like an omen... or perhaps a mysterious present left half unwrapped. It’s an enigma... A gift. A curse. A premonition.
A phantom. An opportunity. Untapped potential...

An ellipsis reminds us that there is more of our story to be written... but who is the writer? Are we allowing our lives to pass us by, trail off into the obscure distance at their own accord? Or are we seizing each and every moment and milking out of our lives what it is that we can?
It’s too easy to allow our lives to pass us by... In the face of external factors beyond our control, we may feel powerless....paralyzed. We may choose to stop moving, Feel that life is too big and we are too small. So what’s the point? What effect can even our most concentrated efforts have when the all-encompassing world has a mind of its own? But we can make a difference. If only we try. We owe it to ourselves to put up this fight. Fight for what it is that we want out of our lives. Set goals and work to make our dreams a reality.
So start today and do something radical. Step up to the plate and take charge. Move. DANCE. Flit about. Fiddle around. Rock the boat. Crawl. Stand. Walk. Run... Grab the wheel. Steer the ship. Stay afloat. Conquer the sea.
They say good things come to those who persevere. So work. Own your ellipsis. Write your story. Define your future and make it something you want and love...
