From the moment our dreams first take shape in childhood, they are pure and untainted by the obstacles life later imposes — yet it is only by reconnecting with that original inspiration that we can truly climb the mountains we are meant to ascend.
* * *
The uphill battle is always our own figurative mountain. The dreams and aspirations that emerge in childhood are closest to our hearts because life has yet to “get in the way.”
The longer we wait to engage with our purest inspiration, the further down the slope we may slide. Life works with us or against us only as much as we choose; it is the ever-willing partner in whatever arena we dare to enter — or avoid.
It does not judge; the universe is only ever a resounding “yes!”
Time is irrelevant. Worry is irrelevant. The question “But, how?” is irrelevant.
Nothing flickers across our consciousness without our inherent capacity to fulfill it. While our mind may perceive only one path, one result, one outcome, it’s not for our mind to discern the how, the who, the where, or the when. It’s the why.
Beyond mere material gains, the why is always to feel good; to feel happy; to feel that we are being of service — to our spirit, our purpose, and to the human collective.
Start with the heart. Follow your feet. Keep your eyes open.
