The first time I realized that I had posted my blog to my Facebook page I cried. I was sharing with a few select people and trying to build up some history on my facebook page first.
In hindsight it doesn’t make sense. Our stories rarely ever do…
I had spent my adult life doing what others wanted. It was easy to dream about white pickets fences and having a healthy and a happy family.
But I hadn’t dreamt about anything that was for me or for my future.
I don’t understand all of the reasons why we talk ourselves out of our dreams and all of the feelings they stir in us. I don’t know why they immediately bring up doubt in us.
All I know is that every time you put yourself out there those feelings show up.
And we can choose to back away from the discomfort, or walk straight into it.
Just for today, don’t let your feelings stop you from chasing your dream.
Say your dreams out loud… even if – especially if – it makes you cry. Those strong emotions are not a sign that you shouldn’t do it, they are a sign that you absolutely should… it means you care.
