At the very center is Trust

At what point, at what moment, do we lose the essential Trust in ourselves to move mountains with simple intentions? So often it can feel like the world is conspiring against us, suppressing beauty, limiting potential, drowning curiosity and fervor with mind-numbing complacency.

But today, this incredible woman gave me a very strong reminder that no matter our means, anything and everything is possible with Deep Conviction. And all it takes, is one foot in front of the other. Small Steps. Small Breaths. And Daily Listening to the stories of hearts and souls unafraid to continue walking in an age of paralysis.

Today, I am letting the Truth come out. I completely Trust that I can...

share stories of Courage that move people to act with Compassion
build my own website
complete the Zine "if i were my own best friend"
be present enough to embrace my community
have patience with the Great Unknown of life after college
expose the honest truths and fears of my complicated heart
make up for my self-doubt with deep belief and caring


What whispering truths is your heart telling you today? Let them sing freely in the comments below.
