Late To The Party

* is not fitting in

* gathers up all the failures that came before it

* is for those who have been forced to pause

* is crashing and burning out and getting up again

* is getting up again

* is getting up again

* is picking up the pieces and examining them

* is recovery in action

* is the journey not the destination

* is when every step is momentous

* is finding the moments of comfort outside the comfort zone

* is for finding ways to make work and share it even when it doesn’t fit in

* is about what works for you

* is in pain

* is a storm

* is vulnerability being strength

* is for those who feel left behind

* and those who’ve had to take the time to find themselves

* is trying to do better

* is lying down, buzzing with ideas, when you can’t stand up

* is living / striving / thriving through chronic illness and mental ill health

* is when you want to get up and you want to get up but you can’t

* is making a change

* is trying again

* is not always knowing

* is not completely understanding

* is getting distracted

* but always coming back to that thrum in your soul

* is when you’re feeling that you should have done better in your 20’s

* and for when being in your 30’s feels too late

* is knowing that things always take longer than you want them to

* is knowing that shows, people and things take their time

* is learning to ride a bike at 32

* is for waiting

* is for waiting for

* is for waiting for the right time

* is incubating ideas instead of rushing

* is always coming back to the love of the craft

* is trying new things

* is trying old things again

* is for those who don’t want a name

* is for those who don’t need a label

* is for those always catching up

* is seeing everyone ahead but seeing the things they’ve missed

* is showing up, eventually

* is feeling / thinking / writing/ making / sharing

* is the moment just as you open the door and peer inside

* is knowing what works for you

*Late To The Party* but arriving with something special
