99.99999% of your fears
live only in your imagination,
in anticipation, and in memory.
Even if the ‘worst’ happens,
you’ll find yourself dealing with it in the moment,
responding from a place of presence.
You don’t have to deal with it now.
You’ll handle it then.
And who knows:
The ‘worst’ thing may turn out
to be your greatest teacher,
your most profound call to awakening,
an invitation to the kind of courage
of which you’d never thought yourself capable.
Fear isn’t your enemy,
but a signpost.
Breathe into the moment.
– Jeff Foster

Before we get going, I thought it only fair to circle back around to my last post and cut all that paralyzing suspense regarding my test last Tuesday. Drumroll, please…. I passed!!!!! EEP!This is good news for us both I can assure you as I’ll move on, quit my moaning, and focus on far more interesting things for us to talk about here. I didn’t realize how heavy a burden the whole process has been throughout the last 18 months. The stress of it bled over into other cracks of life, sucking away energy, ease, and time I’d forgotten I had. So, after taking a week off the blog for some much-needed self-care and rest, I feel massive relief and anticipation for more creative space to play around with other projects I’m ready to push forward.
