Double Shot of Yikes!

Morning Peeps,

One of my all-time favorite books is The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho. (To me) It's a powerful book about a shepherd boy who doesn't have much expect his sheep and a dream; his life ends up being a series of incredible adventures, hardships, love, interesting people and the tough decision of staying in his comfort zone or going after his dream. There's one line in The Alchemist that I've got saved in my phone's camera roll since it resonated so deep within my bones and it goes like this....eh-em..."Everyone seems to have a clear idea of how other people should lead their lives, but none about his or her own."

That brings me to my current situation, a fierce life crossroad. A crossroad where I could be making a decision that will change my currently comfortable life. I've had to take allllll my previous soapbox rants "make good better, do something everyday that scares you, get out of your comfort zone, listen to your Inner Voice, live life to the fullest, and so on and just soak in them then soak some more, rinse, spin and repeat.

I haven't made my decision, but I'm getting close.

 

Challenge of the Day:

Give yourself ten minutes in silence to meditate, to dream, to think, to pray, to be thankful, to weigh options, to decide. Before rushing into the activities of the day, be still.

 

Song of the Day:

The Fear - Ben Howard http://youtu.be/dnxCxHLAqn8

 

my favorite lines:

I've been worryin' that my time is unclear

I've benn worryin' that I'm losing the one's I hold dear

I've been worryin' that we all live our lives in the confines of fear

 

Mildly Obsessed:
