Play, run, spin in the wind, dance in the waves, and let your spirit soar. Everyone is watching.

We often try to hide, or pretend to be something we’re not. We adapt to our surroundings, the people in them, and what we believe they want us to be. We lose ourselves in someone else’s idealistic conceptual landscape. Being ourselves seems too far out of our depth, out of our comfort zone. Or rather, allowing others into our comfort zone feels invasive. Our confidence in who we actually are is not enough to offset the embarrassment of vulnerability. To show and share our innate virtues, capabilities, and personality is daunting. We grow stiff from the stoic wall we have built around ourselves and shrink to what we have decided is permissible to be seen.

It’s time to break down that wall! Burst through with your heart, mind, and soul. Be the person you always felt you could be if given the chance. Now is your chance! It doesn’t need to be given, it is yours to take. You have so much to offer. You are unique. You are needed. We have been waiting.

Break free from the shackles of fear. Embarrassment fades. Discomfort wanes. You have the ability to shine above the perceived limitations of your mind. Live unabashed, sharing your unfettered spirit with those who may follow your light.
