Adventure awaits…and that’s a good thing!!
But what if my search for the next adventure, the next discovery…keeps me from seeing what is already there?
A bit of a conundrum, I think. I used to imagine that I had to keep searching for the best me—chasing waterfalls, so to speak. I mean, really, how do I figure out what I’m supposed to do, who I’m supposed to be?
I have realized lately that I don’t have to chase waterfalls. I don’t have to find The Next Big Adventure. I don’t have to seek my purpose, my calling.
I don’t have to keep “counting the change” to see if all of it—talents, attributes, answers—is really there.
Whenever I weep from the sheer beauty of a mountain lake, a thundering waterfall…
Whenever I let my fingers dance over the keys of my piano, or create some artwork…
Whenever I sit still and watch, listen, rest, and rejuvenate…
I can choose to Let. It. Happen. I already have the answers deep inside of me. They are there. And I am beginning to find great joy in the journey…
