Fly



This quote has such a special meaning to me.  I really do believe that all of us can fly (well metaphorically anyway).  When I look back on my life I see that all the major decisions have been based on this...stepping into the dark unknown...only finding that I can fly.  I am not a planner or strategic thinker.  I live my life day by day not knowing what tomorrow holds.  Sometimes it's scary not knowing what is around the next bend.  Sometimes I wonder if I should make "plans" or goals for myself.  But when I set up goals about what I should do or be...I tend to fail.  Then become disappointed when I don't become all that I dream.  So I just stopped doing that to myself.

And now I am free like the wind.  I just go about my business and follow my heart.  I let each day unfold before me.  I find that life is much more fun this way.  No more pressure on becoming something.

So here is to all of us...stepping into the unknown each day and finding out that we can fly.

Don't be afraid of the dark...know that you are the light.  Trust in yourself and the universe.

Have a beautiful weekend...and soar!

I wish I could hug you!!! I needed this deep within my soul today Caroline!

Thank You! Thank You!

Caroline, this is so perfect! Exactly my mood and what I believe! I'm on vacation but I'm sneaking over to say hi and catch a little light :D

When we release that fear we do fly...it's so worth the risk. And You are definitely a light to the world.
Thank You!

Big Hug :)

Truly Beautiful. I needed this today. To remember to not be afraid, trust, let go and fly! Life is a journey of twists and turns. If we always tried to stay on the straight and narrow, we'd miss all the opportunities to fly.And what glorious sights we see when we fly. Thank you Caroline for always Beautifying the universe by your being. Love and Light, Nina P

Let it go, let it grow, let it flow; trust and know that we are fully and abundantly loved, even in the midst of darkness. I tend to make lists; and am sometimes - not always - disappointed when I don't accomplish my tasks. I need to let it go more and go with the flow of the day. I can fly!

This is so beautiful, and just what I needed to hear. Thank you, Caroline. As always, you amaze me.

The message in this post has put a smile on my face. I haven't felt like smiling in days. I thank you for helping me see that I can live my life in trust instead of in fear. Thank you, thank you.
