Day 1103: I am aware that I am not ____

I am aware that I am not kidding that this post was inspired by this sign, seen yesterday at work:

Yes, I am aware that I am not:

• Phyllis,
• Adam, who is now sitting where Phyllis sat for years,
• a marketing writer any more, now that I’m a psychotherapist,
• sick with a cold,
• perfect,
• as young as I used to be,
• one to stop growing,
• responsible for other people’s feelings,
• writing more than one blog post every day,
• nervous about my audition for “The Voice” next month,
• focusing on the past,
• living with a dog,
• tall,
• a delicate flower,
• a mythological creature,
• too cold,
• too hot,
• in Kansas,
• in Paris,
• going directly into work this morning, because of a pacemaker clinic appointment,  and
•  regretful about the many, many things that I am not.

I am aware that I am not including any other photos from yesterday, yet. I am aware that I am not one to hesitate, once I realize a task is due.

I am aware that I am not a professional photographer.

I am aware that I am not directly asking for comments about this post. I am also aware that I am not unaware that you might have some thoughts and feelings about it.

I am aware that I am not ungrateful to Adam, Phyllis, and all those who helped me create today’s post. I am aware that I am not forgetting to thank you — of course! — for reading it.
