The Art of Yes


What if something appeared in front of you, something incredible, someone, a vision, an idea so strong that it took your breath away? What if you knew it could change your life? What if it could bring you the type of joy that eluded you prior to this very moment, a deep joy you'd come to believe was no longer possible to achieve? What if you knew deep inside that you could sprout wings, fly untethered if you just said Yes, find real faith, not the faith of religion but the faith of knowing that you are connected to a source so incredible that it has been, prior to this moment, too vast to comprehend so you'd set it aside? What if now, right here, it is speaking to you, staring into your eyes, crawling into your soul, creating a vibration beneath your skin? What if this is your destiny - and you know it? Would you need to label it, analyse it, dissect it or would you take a chance? What if no one believed in you except this vision? Would you say yes to the calling? Would you open your heart fully and fly? Would you?
Perhaps the "Art" in our lives is to recognize when we are being called to an awakening, a freedom that only comes when we follow our dreams, and if we don't follow our dreams, they follow us until we....Say Yes...
