Find Your Bliss

Each of us has that plan in our hearts, that one thing that we have always wanted to do, that one career that we have dreamed of pursuing, that idea that has been on the back burner for years. That is called your bliss and most people ignore this and put it on the someday list of fantasies and dreams, but have you ever thought that maybe, just maybe, this may be your fate that you are ignoring?

One day I randomly went to a restaurant that I hadn't visited for years and I got the nudge that it was important to go so I went in and ordered and one of the owner's had this sad look on his face. A long time ago this was a regular stop for me to be at least once a week so I wasn't a stranger and when I asked this man what was wrong he began to explain how frustrated he was that he was still working in this place for his family and that sometimes it just got to him.

I told him I understand how important it is for him to want to please his family but it was his life and he should follow the dream that he had locked away. He looked at me surprised and said, "I don't have a dream". I smiled right back at him and said, "Yeah, you do, now be honest with yourself". Shyly his eyes lit up as he knew that I knew and in that moment he was living that life that he fantasized about. We chatted a little more as I told him that the time was now and he needs to burn that list of reasons why he can't do it and get on with his life and his path. Needless to say he was walking on air when I left that place smiling from ear to ear.

We are given nudges, signs and intuition in order to guide us through our journey of life and nothing is random. Your life is right here in this moment, not in the future so why are you pushing your bliss into some imaginary some day? Don't let fears get in your way, don't let other people get in your way, this is your life, your dreams, your path and you should find your bliss and grab it because it belongs to you right now!
