Sometimes we put life on hold, as if we have a lifetime to wait. But just like an inpatient caller, if life is on hold too long, you might get disconnected. Hung up on. With an endless dial tone.
If you'd rather have a long, lively conversation with life, this passage from Everyday Grace,by Marianne Williamson, offers her insights on how to robustly engage with life, in this moment, rather than postponing for a better time.
"We need not wait for the world to become more mystical; the world is mystical. Our problem is not that the world lacks magic; our problem is that we don't believe in its magic. We do not show up fully for life, and then wonder why life is not showing up more fully for us...The time to show up fully for life is right now, whatever the circumstance....The only way to achieve an exciting life is to be excited and exciting. The only way to achieve an excellent life is to be willing to be excellent. The only way to achieve love is to be willing to be more loving."
How can you bring more excitement, excellence, and love into your life? What are you willing to do? What are you willing to stop doing?
