Girl, you and I are a LOT alike! Reading this made me so emotional, I know EXACTLY what you're talking about. AND THEN YOU REFERENCED THE ALCHEMIST! Ahhhhh! I wish we could go for coffee/drinks & TALK! I know exactly the kind of moment you're describing and what that feels like. And the struggles of listening to your heart and wanting to follow it on impulse rightthenandthere but then you remember you're a 'grown up' and should think things through and it gets scarier the older you get, and you wonder what's right from wrong as far as listening to yourself and knowing if/how to be on your true path....yeah. I am thinking/reflecting a TON as the new year approaches and let me tell you what I am taking into 2009 with me and reading every damn day, maybe more, if I have to! "You are a child of the universe. You have a right to be here" / "Nobody can make you feel inferior without your consent" / AND / "Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God; your playing small doesn't serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others." ** There's NOTHING worse than the feeling you're living the wrong life. I think we have the power to make ANYTHING happen. We can, girl. And we WILL! xoxo Deena Lisa! Girl, you and I are a LOT alike!
