Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans

Kudos to John Lennon for giving us all food for thought.

Lennon was absolutely correct. All of this time I have been around on this earth I have been making other plans. The only real problem I lack follow through. Ask my friends and family and they would probably agree.

Why the lack of follow through? I know the answer and the answer is fear. I have a fear of failing and I guess to a some extent, we all do. That fear keeps me in check. It keeps me from going out and doing what I really want to do with the rest of my life. And do you want to know something? I am sick and tired of it.

I am not going to let it keep me under its control. For far too long have I allowed it to determine my every step with its tight grasp firmly wrapped my every thought. The fear impedes me and I am finished with it and no longer want anything to do with its Vader like choke hold on my life. Like the evil Sith Lord standing in front of me with his hand ever so extended from his torso reaching out to choke me from across the room, the fear has had too much influence in my life.

How will I escape this dark shadow that looms behind every corner of my life? Well I am going to quote Joel Goodsen when I say, "Sometimes you just gotta say, "What the fuck, make your move.". "

I am going to make my moves. For far too long have I let this division of assets thing get in my way. No more. For this I am going to turn to Flyguy from his eloquent poem that landed him the title of Pimp of the Year oh so many years ago...
My bitch better have my money/Through rain, sleet, or snow/My whore better have my money/Not half, not some, but all my cash/'Cause if she don't,/I'm gonna put my foot in her ass.

On the List:
My mother fuckin' money.
An API trip
Dogbird - I am coming for you.
