"Can we be in a place of not knowing and in acceptance? This moment may feel fearful with anxieties because we may have visions and illusions that create expectations. At first the power of our mind and desires give way to excitement and enthusiasm. When the opportunity we have dreamt about does not come to fruition, disappointment plays with our emotions. This human dance with our future can create disillusionment. How many times have we been taken to the alter of hope, to be abandoned and left standing alone with our negative feelings? I am certain that our dress rehearsal has continued to play out for our personal letting go of our attachments to what we map out.

To say " I don't know" with faith that the journey with our bigger purpose is somewhere on the horizon. Our disappointment brings us back inside to feel and pull us back to the present moment of knowing. Knowing without our plan in mind. We have no idea how our future is going to look...yet we have the gift of knowing, if we choose, that it will be perfect for us.

Live in presence and let go of what we think we know. Know that we are worthy and receive the gifts each day."
