The Lyrics From Billy's Forest Chapter 103

Listen to "The Lyrics From Billys Forest Chapter 103" on Spreaker. I think we'd be fibbing if we shouted out, "I never say things like I truly don't know where I am right now." The problem with modern day technology is the lack of GPS systems that put the right direction in our daily decisions and choices. One minute cannot be compared to another. Hitting walls is our natural walk. Instead of walking through it the decision is to go around or back off all together. What if that's not where you should've grown? My Master in Martial Arts used to tell me to stop trying to remove the mountain. I was to figure out how to get through it. That always shot me back to my childhood. My Grandfather was part of the work crew that helped cut a path through the mountains surrounding Bozeman Montana. Each time we flew by that hole in the mountain my heart ignited because I knew a piece of my Grandfather was still alive in me. Rather than tell yourself how lost you might be feeling in the moment, put focus on where your present place is growing. In 1997 I heard in my heart to plant 15 hundred trees in my forest here in South Charlotte, NC. Twenty one years later only 18 stand about fifteen or a little more feet tall. Wow the numbers don't seem right. The energy required to plant 15 hundred trees versus nearly twenty catching a Carolina spring breeze. You can't look at the moment of confusion or self doubt. You have to see the entire painting provided. The forest only needed 18 trees to keep its soil fresh and not over populated. There's enough energy to share rather than steal. Your personal life is no different. You're going in every direction designed by a need to succeed or just be noticed. How many seedlings have you planted that have lifted your game above the business world floor? Study the strength of the survivor while finding inspiration in the moments where you feel lost. That should be a signal to your heart telling the rest of you "I am aware." Grow through that strength by taking notes. Then activate them. Don't expect fruit to suddenly appear. Believe in the process of creating rings in the center of a tree.
