Taking Flight.

I am heading East to the place where I was born to visit with my dad. We are in flight. Soaring above the clouds, held up by the simple grace of the Divine.

And so it is with life. We have the power within to fly as high as our dreams will take us. All it takes is just a tiny spark of courage, a belief that anything is possible, and of course, Divine guidance and support. This guidance is always available to us as vessels of Divine energy. But we need to seek it out.


Listen to that still, small voice in your heart. Perhaps it is asking you to leap into the unknown. Know that you will be supported by a loving energy as you try out your new wings. And as you take flight, you will soar to unimaginable heights. You will see wonders you never dreamed possible. You will connect with amazing people who will share their gifts with you - and you will share your gifts with them. And you will be transformed.

Do not be afraid. Life awaits you with open arms. It is waiting for you to give of yourself. To break out of that box you've put yourself in. It will support you every step of the way. I can say that because I know this to be true - it happened to me.

I made that leap a little over a year ago.  I stared into the abyss for a while and decided to explore the darkness. To make the leap so I could see what lay beyond the great unknown. I was curious to be sure and told myself it would be an adventure of a lifetime. And it was all that and more.

For someone on the far side of 50, this was not an easy leap to make. But that still, soft voice deep within my soul urged me on ... and I knew I would be ok. More than ok. I would become someone brand new!

So I jumped into the darkness.

And what did I find? I found a new world that opened its heart to me. I found joy, wisdom, prairies filled with cattle and horses, sunsets that can take your breath away, amazing new friends, crazy new music, cotton growing in the fields, my own special equine best friend. But even more startling, I found that the darkness was really only there so I could light the way with my own special light. And what a magnificent light it's turned out to be. It greets me at dawn and invites me to share in the adventure of a new day. And it melts softly from a fiery sunset into a brillilant field of stars so close you feel you can at last touch them.

My journey into the unknown gently set me down in Texas. It is truly a magical place for me to be at this point in my life.

So do not be afraid. Without change, life cannot exist. If we are to believe what the sages tell us ... we are all just living the dream we create moment by moment. Why not dream in technicolor? Be brave. Surprise yourself. Feel the adrenaline that comes with living life to the fullest. You of all people can do it. Your life will be richer because you not only found your wings - you used them to fly!



There are no demons in the darkness. Only specks of light, each illuminating a new adventure that awaits you. Go ahead. LEAP! Your incredible future awaits.
