Time For Adventure

Life is a gift. When we open our eyes each day, the day that lies before us is filled with possibilities.  It’s a chance to revel in the beauty that surrounds us.  A cocktail of nature, human chaos and many times order. I like being human and having choices. I like that I’m not perfect and that I can’t predict what will happen next.  No matter how many plans I make, things will change and challenges will come. 

It’s through these challenges that we learn to grow and survive.  To enjoy each moment, savor it for it’s own uniqueness and what is being offered.  Life teaches us that it’s never too late and then sometimes that it is.  But if you find a door closed, look ahead because another door lies open and is waiting for you with a new  adventure. Change is good, for without it, how would we ever have or next adventure?

When the door opens to change, enter that door no matter what.  It’s life beckoning you, it’s offering you to take the chance, to leap and grow.  Yes, those journeys can be frightening, tough, difficult.  But work through it the best you can and you will find yourself on the other side wiser and with skills you never realized you had. It’s like a hard workout, you are in pain, you can’t breathe and feel that your heart may burst out of your chest.  But your heart  doesn’t and you suddenly realize how strong your body really is and what it is capable of. If you hadn’t pushed that limit, you would have not have known.  You now have deeper knowledge of your body and built spiritual confidence in your abilities.  A gift from the Universe. 

I know, it’s scary, but it’s ok. We are all human and we know that fear.  It’s what we decide to do with fear that creates growth and abundance, or not.  So, here’s to adventure, growing, learning and finally knowing.  Knowing the gifts that change can bring.
