Happy comes when I am all the way in. Not hesitant. Not holding back. Freed. Ready. Moving. Choosing. Stretching. Reaching. Content but not complacent.
Just like this giraffe I saw at the zoo. Reaching. Far. Beyond the boundary. To snatch a taste of something delicious. Right in front of everybody. He had to get a little uncomfortable. He had to really
s t r e t c h. But he did. He didn't stand looking longingly over the fence. He didn't wait until someone told him it was ok. He didn't hope that eventually he would get to be in that cage. Nope. He made his move. Decisively. Courageously. And, he was successful. Of course, that's because of his amazingly long tongue!! But, still, you get the idea. It's easy to blame everyone else for us not having or doing what makes us happy. I think that we just do that because it's too hare to own it and make the hard decision to DO whatever it is. To make our move. To stand up. To choose. To be seen as different. To be seen at all. But how delicious it it to STRETCH!
blessings. get all the way in!!! don't be half hearted.
