It is amazing that when you take your blinders off... (you know, that tunnel vision that most people are accustomed to…blocking out the peripheral of what the World has to offer because we are blinded by the task at hand, the stress, the to-do's, the must haves…) what Life truly has to offer. In fact, if you truly open your mind and spirit to the World..

the Universe gives you exactly what you are seeking.

I have met so many extraordinary beings from all different walks of life along my journey, each with a story to tell, each with a struggle to break free from their past conditioning, wishing and hoping for a life worth living, wishing for a better story to tell, and hoping that something will make the change for them, by fate or luck or chance. We all seek a greater purpose to share our gifts, our talents, to give back, pay it forward, and to touch people's lives on a grander scale yet most of us are restricted to accomplishing this. We have the ability to do so, the problem is that most of us walk through life avoiding the potential that their soul carries. Most accept their reality, their fate for what it is and humbly so…We feel guilt for asking for more. I know I absolutely can relate to this. I always accepted my reality with gratitude and felt like if I asked for more than I was not living in the moment or showing my appreciation for the life I have been given.

I once lived by a very misconstrude mentality and way of living, The thing is, this is not a life that has been necessarily "given". And we can all interpret that in our own unique ways, I believe that everything truly happens for a reason and that there are certain obstacles, challenges, or "tests" that are put along our path in which are uncontrollable and what I found was that most of this Life is CHOSEN. We are "given" an opportunity to make a decision for ourselves and are so blessed to have the right to make choices. We can choose which path we want to walk along. Embracing this exact moment in acceptance for the life we have CHOSEN. There are so many opportunities that we are offered yet we choose not to take advantage of them and to make them apart of our reality. If you truly look back at all of your paths, there may be many twists and turns along your journey because we don't always necessarily choose from our heart. We want to believe that this life was just given because we sometimes are scared that it is our decisions that truly create our own realities. Instead of living life in regret, no matter how hard your struggle, realize that this was always how it was meant to be, a learning experience to grow and become stronger, to always strive to make the next decision more wisely and rise yourself above your obstacles. You see, it is up to you to make the time here on Earth meaningful, fulfilling, and exciting. Nothing will change unless you do. Ever hear that saying, "What you Think, You Become" ? This is a motto I live by. This is something that absolutely holds truth, our thoughts create our reality. If we want change, we must choose to make those changes become a reality. Rather than staying stuck, living life battling unhappiness, grief, pain, fear, guilt, regret…all those burdens that resist us from propelling…

Let go of this resistance.

Let go and be free from what your mind, your friends, your family, or society says you can not do. Listen to your Soul and convince your mind that YOU ARE WORTHY of a greater reality. Only you can make that decision. So decide now. Decide today that...
