Emily Haines stood on stage in front of the crowd packed into the Showbox and told us – we all want to do something amazing. We all want to get there, have it, be it and live it out, but what we don’t always realize is that we are it, we have it, we live it every day.
We spend so much time trying to get to the next step that we may overlook this one. We are all a song, a light and a magnet that draws the amazing to us. We are all given amazing opportunities that we have no choice but to embrace. It’s not about being in front of the bright lights, it’s about what you do when the curtain goes down and everyone goes home. We all have that, no matter who we are.
It’s about doing your best with what you have because we are all famous and infamous, we are all rock stars. We are all still children and we are all loved. We are all gorgeous. We are all doing our best. We are all making waves and leaving our mark. We all have the chance to make something, create something and be something and it’s up to us to move forward.
There is nothing we cannot do and nowhere we cannot go. We draw the life to us and we are made by the power of our choices. We are one, alone and singular, yet we are all in this together. We are all pieces of the same puzzle; each piece is as important as the next.
What is our next step? To love; to give love and be loved in return. We are here to see and experience and make life happen.
