I had an idea the other day, one that startled and surprised me, and made my heart beat a bit faster.
It terrifies me, all the possiblitity it holds. But I didn't say no, or dismiss it, or listen to the hundred voices inside me telling me there is no way to make this dream happen.
Insead, I settled into this dream, letting it take shape and I let myself really consider what life would be like if I said yes. If I trusted that things could slot into place - that perhaps I was meant for this dream. Could I be happy? Could it really be for me? If it was possible -- what would that mean?
All I knew was that it would be huge. In every sense. And that it was something that I absolutely had to explore.
I am giving myself permission to dream today. To mull and ponder, and see the joy that this one idea can hold. No pros and cons, no being realistic. I will not stifle this. This week I am dwelling in possibility. And next week, and hopefully the one after that too.
-- This dream feels so bright and small and precious that I can't bring myself to share quite yet. I will when the time is right.
