Determined to fill the void… determined to find the gap.. a strange lesson unfolds.. learning to be safe in my vulnerabilities.. learning to be not ok with the risks.. persist.. persist.. persist. I am digging my feet in. I am finding the path that is meant for me.

Go on your way to find the town that crops up in your dreams.. find the distant fairytale land that you can only see glimpses of in your imagination.. if it doesn’t exist in this physical reality.. begin to create it.. you deserve to feel at peace with the universe.. and the universe is begging for you to take hold of your unique vision.. this is not the time to practice resentment against the self.. we have to spread the passion that lives through the fear.. because the fear is a welcomed indicator of the path we have chosen..

There are roadblocks and pitfalls along the way. We are not meant to pursue that which is bland and leaves us to dream uninterested. We create our own path as we walk along the shore. Our footsteps are washed over in the sand behind us so that others must find their own way. The tide slowly changes.. washing up higher onto the rocks.

There is a world of light that exists just below the surface.. A place where the spirits call home and the sun and the wind and the rain speak like that are children playing in a grass-covered hill. People wonder all the time about the point of this life. People wonder about what has been lost or left behind in the chaos. We are only here to decide what we would like to do from this moment forward. There is no benefit to missing the days that have gone.. we can create whatever we want.. and missing the past works to destroy parts of ourselves that prevent us from being fully present and enjoying this moment.

I am not sure where we are going. But I know that it is in the same direction as the person that you stand next to. We will ultimately have the same place that we end up… recycled back into the earth.. turned back into the cosmic dust from whence we came. I brave the unknown through my mind to reduce the anxiety of the passing. But that is ok.. we are allowed to be afraid.. it is a signpost.. it is something that helps to correct our trajectory.. something that baits us in the right direction. Learning to be more conscious of the bullshit fears that dance in my mind.. I must learn to be myself..

I must learn to be vulnerable and persist through the fog of fear.

I am so grateful for this moment. I am so grateful that you would choose to spend the time to read this. You mean so much to me and I appreciate this opportunity with every fiber of my being.

You are incredible.
