the things that move us
funny how life is ... we often stay stuck to things, people, places, situations for fear of what might happen ... a fear completely unwarranted yet as real as the air we breath ... yet, once we let go (if indeed it is fear that is keeping us attached), we experience a sense of freedom, a sort of release both physical and emotional ... and of course there is a laundry list of reasons ... I'm too old, too young, too ugly, too handsome, too short, too tall, too sick, too healthy, etc to do something different--even though I want desperately to do something different ... be someone different ... experience something different ...
Life is way too short to spend even a day -- years for many -- stuck to the unwanted, the unfulfilling, the undesired, the outgrown -- pining for a change ... but we all have our demons to deal with--our fears, our obsessions, our emotions, our addictions -- and those are the ones that prevent us from moving on -- once we identify and neutralize them, moving on becomes an imperative, the force of our body and spirit pushes us forward ... we have no choice but to move because, faced with the truth, we can no longer stagnate.
