Soul Stirring Opportunity and Second Chances

me and my guitarI picked up my guitar a few weeks ago and it completely captivates me. I have always loved the soul stirring sound of acoustic guitars. A couple of people have asked why I wanted to learn to play now. I replied, “Why not right now?” Before, I had put off pursing things I wanted to experience. I found “reasons” to not do it and each time a part of who I was becoming…retreated.

You can not deny who you really are. Actually, you can, but eventually something inside is going to erupt and demand that you acknowledge and pay it some attention.  I have been paying attention to that stirring inside. I have had to ignore the voices of others and follow what is in my heart. Today, I am honoring myself, my spirit and who I am becoming.

Some opportunities have presented themselves to me in the most unexpected ways. Some making me wonder why these things are happening right now. Some of them are new experiences that promise a window into even bigger things. Others are second chances that promise to be nothing short of magnificent. They take my breath away.

All of them, promising me the experiences of a lifetime if only I believe. And, you know what? I believe.
