The Improvisor

I've always been one to improvise. I've let the winds of life carry me in whatever direction it blows me, as if I were a feather. Sometimes it is a cool breeze, an easy stream of events and situations; and others like a hurricane gale wind, pushing me too far in emotions and failures. But such is life for all I believe. We're all actors in the play called life, but it is improvised. We make decisions on the spot, we plan things, but we're never certain of what outcomes our decisions will bring.
I am 27 years old now, and still never quite sure. I have struggled with direction all of my life. My earliest memories included wanting to be a teacher or a singer. Neither dream made it through. I began to feel sorry for teachers after seeing the abuses of fellow classmates, and also knew I couldn't carry a tune, so both dreams were gone. I fell in love with sports in junior high and wanted to be a professional women's basketball player. I had the heart for it; problem was that my athletic ability was very far off. I couldn't even run a quarter of a mile without stopping to catch my breath. Then I wanted to be a lawyer. I then realized I couldn't even pay attention for five minutes, so I would very much be useless in a courtroom.
There has always been one constant though; and that is The Artist. I could paint scenes with words, pencils, pens, or other creative means. I would often write my feelings down on paper or draw them, and even when I wasn't thinking about something, I would create random logos or drawings, and so finally the decision has come.. I'm going in to design. When I finish, I will probably look for a good writing school also and increase this strength. My dreams right now is to right and design either a science fiction novel or television show. I guess it started when some mates of mine decided to play a role playing game where we created our own characters from scratch, and give them a story. (If you can't tell, I am a self-proclaimed Geek and proud!) I went a little overboard with my character, and wrote nearly an 80 page notebook full of a story for him.
Years later, I found myself buying notebooks after notebooks. Story after story, poem after poem, sketch after sketch, I knew that I was in love with the pen and paper. I began to put these things on to the web, and received some rather good feedback, so perhaps the pen is my destiny. I want to write all sorts of things: science fiction, testimony, my faith, encouragement, football chants, whatever comes to mind. My pen and my keyboard helps me to document this improvisation called life, where every day brings something new, whether it be experiences or ideas.
Everyone has their own unique story. You may think yours is not interesting or boring, but enjoy your uniqueness, and everything from the mundane to the exciting. Live every day to the full and enjoy it, because you never know what to expect in the future. You're on an adventure everyday, so make the most of it!
