Day 21, 30-day #candleflame challenge.
“As essence turns to ocean,/the particles glisten./
Watch how in this candleflame instant/blaze all the moments you have lived.”
~Rumi
The power of chance never ceases to amaze me.
One door shuts and another opens.
Or is it that a myriad of doors open.
Infinite possibilities.
Anything is better than waiting in the hallway.
Forward motion.
I like to think that we choose our own fate.
That we can change our path.
That who we are and what we do isn’t a forgone conclusion.
And that the people you meet are there in that perfect moment
For the perfect reason.
As I travel a ton I get to meet folks from all over the world
Who challenge my viewpoint.
Who teach me to slow down.
To step into my power.
To laugh a little bit more.
To see things through their eyes.
Aside from joy, empathy is my favorite feeling/emotion.
I love it.
And am thankful for it.
I’m not a big gambler.
But I do love the board game Risk.
And I do always put a bet on 18, red.q
So, spin the wheel, you never know
where it’s going to take you.
Thank you for giving that little heart below a nudge if you liked this. :)
