Giving Ourselves Room

We can make things so hard on ourselves sometimes.  


We think of all the ways something can go wrong.

We think we have to stay one step ahead of the game.

We think we have to have it all figured out - what our concrete goals should be and what specific actions to take.

We think we have to be perfect - in perfect alignment or in perfect character.

We think we have to slay dragons - ours or another’s.

We think we have to be on constant alert or we’ll miss something important.


What if we could back off and give ourselves room to maneuver in this world?

What if we know we’ll receive information and insights when we need them?

What if the right circumstances for our life will come in when it’s time?

What if the dragons are really only pivot points?

What if perfection is too limiting for us?
