Everything you need is already happening.
Every wish is already done.
If you can’t see it, it’s just buried so deep that you can’t see it.
If you’re restless
ambitious
anxious
well then don’t wait.
Go get it.
Dive in your heart.
You think you have control? Well, might I offer that is your only choice?
Your choice is when you decide you want to get it?
When will you have the courage to look? To see?
Because there is nothing else holding you back,
no one else that can go there.
And no obstacle, that is not meant for you,
to bring you here, to your personal
tangible
private
uniquely magnificent
expression + experience
of life
of the world
of your deepest desires
and best kept secrets
and profoundly magical surprises
that never look the way you expected.
They’re already there.
It’s already here, silly.
It always has been.
In you.
Just look.
Sit.
And it unravels.
It unfurls to everything you never even knew you wanted.
So if you want to be brave, if you want it now.
Then be brave like this: let it be. Let it now.
That is all you need to do. Because it comes on its own.
That’s its job. That’s its nature. That is nature.
And that is love. That is everything. And that is now.
