Re-invention

Re-invention: the art of re-creating yourself into something or someone else. There are some people who are masters of the art of re-invention, Madonna, Lady Gaga, Cher. Masters of the art of making themselves new and current and always edgy and changing. I want to be a master of re-invention. Actually I just want to re-invent myself.

Some days I become become with everything, my hair color to my fashion to my hobbies and everything else in between. What if I re-invented myself, what if I became something different? What would I become? The possibilities seem endless. I could be the girl who becomes an athlete, or the partier or social butterfly, I could become the selfish one, the mellowed, hippie version of myself, the badass version, the strung out and stressed out version, the work-aholic, crafty Suzy- homemaker version. The adventurer, the loner, the well - rounded individual, the elitest, the must have a plan version, the no plan at all version.

The thing about re-invention is that is some ways it seems fake, it's all a part that someone plays and yet part of the re-invention are true. I am or have been in some aspect all of the things above, both the good and the bad. Some days I just feel like I just don't want to be me , and maybe some of that is an age thing, maybe I need to be more adult but even adults sometimes aren't happy with their lives and they have to make a change. So why can't I? Why can't I change the things I do and the places I go? What is stopping me? Absolutely nothing- that's what is so amazing I have the ability to change my life and there is absolutely nothing to stop me from doing it. Nothing that says I can't be the next athlete in the family, or the next beauty , or the next gifted student. I can be all of those things and more, and I think I'm just now starting to realize that I don't have to just be one thing, I don't have to just do one thing with my life I can do everything.
