what I do know.

I don't know what I'm doing.

I don't know if all my ideas and decisions are right.

I don't know exactly what I want to do with my life.

I don't even know if "doing something with my life" needs to hold so much weight in our lives. I don't know anything.


I only know that the things in my life that have not served me, had to be cut out so that I could make space for other things. Things that nourish me and feed me. I know that I want to be, and deserve to be, happy. I know that nothing changes, until something changes.


So, in order to take those leaps and launch the change campaign of your life, you have to embrace it. All. The fear, the chaos (good chaos), the unknown and uncertainty, the discomfort. There's always potential for failure, but of course that's countered with the potential for radical success as well (whatever that may mean to you). There's the process of learning what else you are capable of. The growth. The discovery. The evolution.

But man, that fear. It's something, huh?


Hello fear, nice to feel you again!

But you've got to just be sure of yourself.

Trust yourself, & the process (yes, that old cliché).

Whatever decision you've made, you made it for a reason. And if you're smart, you've done your research and have the resources. & the back up plan if needed. You've most likely got the support of those around you - if you don't get a new circle. And above all, you've got you. You have made it to this point, after all. That's something to celebrate.


Life is worth celebrating. Every day. Celebrated in many ways, one of which should be the joys intertwined in the small, mundane daily moments of our lives. Create a celebrated life.

A colorful, smiling, whirlwind of whimsicality, celebrate-each-breath kind of life!

The world cannot and will not always be happy, but can't you turn your small corner of the world into something happy. Something worth living. & in return, taking that joy and giving back to the world that cannot and will not always be happy, but could use some more joy so that there's some kind of potential of spreading said joy around to those in need? A sometimes sad world does not have to mean a sad life. Why have we stopped celebrating life? And more so, why have not put more emphasis on creating a life that makes us happy?

The have-to life and expected life are not nourishing. How do we expect to nourish the world if we are malnourished ourselves? There's no way to give from an empty cup.


Fill the fuck up. Overflow! Learn to laugh, smile, flow with life. Leap and love and live.

We all have so much to give once we find that flow.


Finding my flow & taking my leaps,

S.
