Germinate, Blossom and Shine

We all have both our joyous victories and what seem to be weights around our necks as we travel throughout a day and through life. Those things it is obvious we are to be thankful for and are full of grace, and those things that appear as burdens, unwanted challenges and sources of sadness. In this moment look at both with love and gratitude. Only by questioning our infallibility and stepping into the unknown and uncomfortable do we grow. And when we grow, shockwaves are sent out into the world to help other seeds, in other people, germinate, blossom and shine with faces to heaven where the sun is waiting to greet them.

Every step taken by one person is an inching forward by a greater number of souls. Taking that next step is often the hardest part, but its rewards fill the skies, with trust and faith as the wind. And soon you are running, and maybe even flying. And smiling. Finding peace always brings with it a smile. I hope, reading this, you are smiling now.
