Enjoyed a day trip to Cancun yesterday. Rode in with our landlady and daughter. So incredibly thankful for such beautiful, kind people to share a house with.

This morning I woke thinking about our own personal messages, what is heavy on our hearts to share with others, what is the most important thing for us to make sure others know or experience. And when we live those words, speak those words, share, teach, write, and experience those words from the deep of our bellies, we impact the world in a way no one else can.

I realize so often I compare. What I say and how I say it to others. And inevitably, I discount mine as not as powerful or eloquent or lovely as others. I allow my own self doubt chip away at my hearts desire to share with others, how monumentally important it is to follow your heart. To be so in tune with what your heart is saying that you make courageous, often seemingly stupid choices in order to fulfill that gut "knowing". That no matter what, you just HAVE to do what your heart says, or else you know you would be failing yourself.

It got to that point with me when we were selling our apartment and pretty much everything in it. I looked around, thought "What the heck are we doing!?", then realized, there was no turning back. I had to keep moving in this direction and staying was no longer an option. I think it was about that very moment, I found a deeper freedom to embrace the journey and give give a rats ass what anyone else said. Not even myself.

Do I have moments now that I wonder that very thing? Absofreakinglutely! But that is exactly when I am not connecting with my heart, or my message, or my souls intent and I go back to familiar, my homeostasis and I am no longer looking into my future but replaying my past and comparing.

Are there moments I want to have the safety of the known, yup. Are there things I want that are not available here, for sure. Do I like throwing my toilet paper into the garbage can instead of flushing it.NOPE. But do I want to go back to my past comfort zones, and my familiar surroundings, and opening myself up to the regrets of "what if"? Not a chance.

So I am writing my story, the only way I know how; words rolling out of my head and onto the screen, without edit or adjustments to what I think I "should" say, or how it compares to others way of expressing. I just say it, put it out there, walk my authentically me walk and say it how the only way I know how. As Me, living this dream, experiencing my message in the hopes it impacts others to do the same: Follow their ( YOUR) heart.

Now, it's time for laundry! Yay for bits of the ordinary? Hm....not so much. ;)
