It is amazing what we learn about ourselves, about others, about the human experience, when we put our feet forward.
Of course you have heard the old “put you best foot forward” adage, but this is pedal discrimination in my opinion.
They work best together to take great leaps.
And once you have left the ground the magic starts to happen.
Straddling the learning curve at the place where knowing and not knowing meet is a very exciting place to be.
Such tension is the birthplace of creativity, that movement of the soul that reinforces the will to live and the will to meaning.
Of late, my life has felt so dreamlike. I am doing things and going places I never thought would ever actualize in my life, but here I am.
I am focused on the future, but absorbed in the present. I am the harvester of authentic and almost palpably intimate moments with those in my life: family, friends, strangers and the like. The stories of others and their raw emotions are my drug.
My soul can rest knowing that the seemingly futile hard work I put into building my character has paid off exponentially as I am blossoming into the woman I have always wanted to be.
I just never realized any of it until I took that leap…
