Do you sometimes want to walk on the wild side?
What do you find?
Is it scary?
Invigorating?
And Adventure?
There is something for me that feels energy when I step off the path.
Yes, it is very scary, but I am so proud of myself when I do it.
Sometimes it is just a small step, but sometimes I gather up my brave girl self
and take a giant step toward something new.
It usually takes a lot of self talk, a deep breath, and then a huge jump.
The landing might be hard or if the way has been padded with good wishes
the path can be like falling onto the soft mossy ground.
And yes, sometimes we get hurt in the leap, but of course we will recover
and move on, make a new path.
As a young girl I was often up for taking a dare or was it a challenge.
I loved it!
I still love the challenge, the adventure, the anticipation,
the fall and especially the landing in the unknown.
As an older woman sometimes the fall scares me deeply.
I have become more cautious.
I know in my heart I must accept the challenge,
enjoy each day and find new adventures.
Sometimes they are just around the corner
and sometimes far away.
So take a walk on the wild side, challenge yourself!
Where will it take you?
Enjoy the adventure!
Find laughter as you fall and open your heart to what is around you.
The unknown is only the unknown until you allow it to wrap you in it's arms.
Happy Weekend, dear friends!
Enjoy the challenge and adventure each day!
