Today

This afternoon I am going to teach an Energy Play class at a local dungeon. But before that, I have to make it to my writer's group. I've been fretting lately that I'm not where I should be on the road to fame and fortune (or at least the fortune part).

But last night as I sat at karaoke with a group of others who are striking out boldly to live authentically as writers and artists, I was suddenly hit with the realization that we are all moving in the exact same direction. We are in the flow, and we are all heading just exactly where we need to be.

It's terrifying sometimes to cast off expectations from others of what you should be doing with your life, with your career, with your sex life... but the gift of pursuing this often rocky road is that you get those moments when everything is just perfect. Even in its imperfection, it's exactly right. The comfort of that is monumental. The peace and power it gives is also amazing.

So this morning, I have exactly the right amount of change for an organic coffee at the local shop. I have enough gas to get me everywhere I need to go. I have fabulous friends waiting for me at every place. And I am confident when all of that has passed, I will be in a place once more where everything I really need is there waiting.

I'm not saying all of this isn't hard and we don't have to put in work. We have to show up completely. But we need to remember we have a safety net in the universe. And because of that, we can all be a little more fearless.
