Facing Your Fears

Your leg is dangling into the open mouth of an alligator.  It is your choice as to remove it or not – like a dance of risk and fire.  What does that mean?  The alligator is your perceived fear.  The monster that remains and becomes the barrier of perceived danger.  Dancing on the edge of safety and not to the line of unknown risks and fears but to the perception that if you step over this line, you will be eaten.  You are at the edge of walking through your perceived safety of your life and your persona that you have cultivated over time.  To strip off the cloak that you wear to reveal your truest self, walking towards your purpose seems insecure and vulnerable to the point of literally being eaten alive in your mind.  To show yourself as you really are feels not only completely naked but with a cellular memory of death.  But what if you were to be naked and vulnerable and risk being seen for who you really are?  Would perhaps you be seen as the beautiful and powerful Divine creature that you are?  Here to deliver a message of inspiration and hope and to be a guide to others.  To light the path and be your truest and most powerful self not just to be seen by others but purely to be.  Could it be, that not taking the risk could be the worst thing you can imagine?  Would the possibility of living your best life and your highest possibility not be better than living a life in the shadow of your own cloak.  In a cocoon of safety that wraps you in a constant state of metamorphosis but never allows the growth of your wings.  You have everything you need within you.  You have the resources within for a life of fulfillment, love and abundance within and without.  It is time to step, only this time pet the alligator on the head, make friends with it, and use its head as a stepping stone across the threshold of possibilities.

In Gratitude and Love.
