Transcript

There's so much that we don't get to know. So many first steps around blind corners with feet that have barely learned to walk, Let alone leap. Yet the unknown calls and the feet leap, And the path unfolds and opens with each next first step, Until what we can't see or know comes into clear sight. With new eyes from the lens of who you became through the fear, The waiting, The resistance to loving, The letting go, And eventually the leaping. It was all so that it would change you and deepen you and awaken you into the version of you that you needed to be and are called to open into in this life. So when you don't know but want to know, Let yourself be swallowed by the mystery. Trust your heart and all that has and was been torn apart to bring you into clarity with what you know to be true. There is so much you don't know, But there's also so much you do. So even when your mind can't make it make sense, Let yourself live your truth. Thank you.
