Expansion!

What does it mean to expand our horizons?

I believe that a great life is one of constant change-- of healing, of learning, and of new experiences. We are all passionate about something. Often more than one thing. Yet frequently, we do not feel full because we are caterering to our Ego's "wants" rather than to our soul's rich purpose.

We are each only here for a finite amount of time. So reflect on this word for a moment: Expansion!

It is in new places both physically and mentally/spiritually/emotionally that the colors of life brighten and our palates become satiated.

With gratitude and humility we must continue to seek change. Change can take countless forms-- for example: reading new books to further knowledge, taking on a volunteer project, immersion in unfamiliar culture, whether that be close to home or abroad...

Expansion involves walking through fear- no longer avoiding a dream because it is easier to stay in the comfort zone than it is to step off the dock, to risk "failure".

There is no such thing as failure.
If you are holding on, convincing yourself that you are "not ready" or that your dream is not important, untie that knot,

Let out the line,
Allow your boat to drift,

EXPAND!
You are rich and vibrant and beautiful,
Life will support your efforts.
