When you find something "good" you never want to let it go. You hold onto "good" because you think "good" is as good as it gets. You never imagine something great, something so great, it's unexplainable. Instead, you stop where you stand... close your eyes to any other options, take in a slow deep breath, and accept "good" as your best!
Your thoughts become "good". Your actions are motivated by "good." Your life, as much as you'd like to deny it, has become co-dependant upon "good's" life plans. You take in air, imagining "good" as oxygen itself. You take "good" to mean forever, everything, your all... You begin to believe you were created to fulfill "good's" greatest desires. You were made to stretch, develop, hold onto, work with, understand, and motivate... love ... "good."
Then you start to notice that "good" isn't so great. Instead, "good" is exactly that...good. Nothing more, nothing less. "Good" is nice, convenient, and comfortable. "Good" is pleasing, patient, quiet. "Good" is not noisy, argue-some, or problematic. "Good" is exactly that...good. "Good" is just good.
Don't get me wrong...there's nothing terribly wrong with good. However, "good" will always prohibit true growth because "good" can't stand the test of becoming "great," and has no true passion of becoming "the best, excellent, perfect." "Good" will never be perfect... but you are confident that "good" has great potential! Even in the possibility of reaching such potential, "good" opts out of great and would rather remain stagnant at being good.
Your acceptance of "Good" never allows you to see how far behind you are at reaching great. The longer and tighter you hold onto "Good," you begin to notice that "good" is suffocating. "But why?" Because you, and "Good" fail to realize that accepting good is accepting stagnation and complacency; which have led you to "okay," "average," "aight," "something is better than nothing," "you're not worth anything great or better, so close your eyes to truth, and accept "good" as a lie... accept it as great... accept as the best... accept it for what it claims to be."
A choice must be made... a final choice! "Good" knows it has great potential; but, "good" chooses to remain good. You know that "Good" is not where you are destined... no offense; but unimaginable greatness is in your future. So now, you must open your eyes, clear out all self-created imaginative scales, and move from "good" to an unknown, unseen, beautifully expectant "great."
Cry your tears... for we know "You hold onto "good" because you think "good" is as good as it gets. You never imagine something great, something so great, it's unexplainable. Instead, you stop where you stand... close your eyes to any other options, take in a slow deep breath, and accept "good" as your best. Your thoughts become "good". Your actions are motivated by "good." Your life, as much as you'd like to deny it, has become co-dependant upon "good's" life plans. You take in air, imagining "good" as oxygen itself. You take "good" to mean forever, everything, your all... You begin to believe you were created to fulfill "good's" greatest desires. You were made to stretch, develop, hold onto, work with, understand, and motivate... love ... "good."
Your tears may last a while. They may sting as they stream down your face of disappointment, of "appeared" failure. However, when the tears are done... STAND UP! And take your first step towards being great! Re-introduce yourself to yourself, and remind self, that you are destined for unimaginable greatness! No matter how "good" things may seem...NEVER EVER settle for good. If you settle for good, you not only hinder your own future, but the future of all who have been divinely placed in your future to be blessed because of your oneness with unimaginable greatness!
Wipe your eyes, kiss "good" farewell, don't look back, and walk into your future!
