Feel Free to Feel Alive

The search for finding peace in our hearts must begin with awareness of all the good we hold inside of our souls. Many times outside circumstances can limit us from growing to our full potential because we get a false sense of ourselves within our minds. One of the hardest obstacles to overcome in life is becoming able to forgive not only people and situations that have done harm to us, but forgiving ourselves. Outside sources and pasts that we have no control over can make us feel inadequate or worse, undeserving of better situations. When we are able to start knocking down the walls that have been built around us we can begin to free ourselves from the insecurities and fears that bind us. We are never more than one step away from breaking free from baffling situations that cause us to shrink ourselves and keep us from love. We are all meant to give something to this world and we can be confident of our instinctual nature to reach out and hold onto everyone and everything that makes us feel alive inside.

No dream is too big and no love is too strong when we learn to trust that within us there is a limitless potential to find all we are searching for. We can start right now looking inside of ourselves and allowing our hearts to lead us. What we have learned from history does not have to dictate to us where we are headed and the path we choose to lead. We will find on our journey many good sources of inspiration. People who understand us and see the good we may not even see in ourselves. We will find tiny miracles along the way when we are open to discovering them; and we should never take them for granted. The smile of children that distinguishes their curiosity. The sun rising above the vast sea and the waves crashing gently ashore. The shared touch of someone we feel safe with and the beauty behind the eyes of those we cherish.We are free to feel all that is good inside of us and follow our dreams wherever they may lead. The search begins with forgiveness and the willingness to discover all the potential within us. Feel free to feel alive inside.
