Only Ducks.

I've had that thought again.

You know the one.

The thought that goes like, "Your life will start someday... you'll be fulfilled when... you'll make a difference when..." followed by the ever present "when you get your ducks in a row."

Who is the arbiter, the decider of whether or not I have my "ducks in a row?"

Who actually has their "ducks in a row?"

Only ducks.  (Thanks, Adeline for this response to my question!)

Only ducks have their ducks in a row.  And the occasional human, as the above picture shows, literally has his or her ducks in a row.

I am out to obliterate this notion that the future I want has to be put on hold for some reason.  This idea kills off dreaming, creating, and the doing that it takes to actually fulfill on a new future.

And so now, I affirm that I am enough.  I am ready.  My future fulfilled begins now.
