Sometimes

Sometimes
I just want to be good
enjoy life with a lightness of feathers
to fly through my day
be guided by the wind

Sometimes
I don’t want to be the best version of me
the mentality of go get it
the goal setting
it feels heavy

Unable to float on the clouds
but be pressured under them

I like to be able to move
be non-consistent in my days
avoid the fast highways
embrace the delays

Sometimes
I like the not knowing
feel the wind change its course
see where it will take me

Sometimes 
that’s all I want
to be

I wrote this when I was still working my full-time account manager job, where we talked about goals and sales on a weekly basis. I was so tired of this mindset, of the constant need to improve and do better. I realized that, sometimes, it’s good the way it is. Sometimes Good is Good Enough.
