i see

i see carefree living
where laughter comes easy 
and midnight pillow talks are the norm
where unplanned picnics and hikes to hidden places 
and "let's go somewhere that we've never been"
is natural. 

i see smiling faces
big hugs and tenderness 
when things get tough
comfort is right beside you/me. 

i see love overflowing
where judgement does not exist
where kindness and laughter
spill out everywhere
all day long

i see soul growth
looking inside
putting paper to pen
to make it all real
to get it out
to re read again
and see how far we've come.

i see cooking together
and drinking it all in
the love
the smells
the wine
the moment
the magic

i see memories being made
ones that last lifetimes
ones that our kids tell
their kids

i see making it through
the rough times
knowing that it is safe
and that one day we will laugh about it

i see this life
so worth living
and doing
and being
in this moment
without worry.

this is your life
live wildly!

the leap

taking a step into the unknown can make you
both vulnerable and unsure. 
it's scary when you can't see where 
your next footstep will fall. 

the beautiful thing is that you
are taking the leap. 
that you are trusting the process 
and staying on the path to reach 
your goals. 

your journey is just beginning... 
you have so much living 
and learning ahead of you.
and even more so, 
you are gifted the time 
to make it happen. 

i want you to know that i believe in you. 
i believe that you will take this 
opportunity to do the things you never 
thought you could. 
to be the YOU 
that has always taken a back seat 
to what others thought you should 
be doing and not what your heart desired. 

now is the time 
and it's all you. 
take it
embrace it
and rock this world. 

all the passion
the desire
the willingness 
and the want
reside inside your beautiful soul. 
go for it! you've got this! 

always know... 
that if you change your mind 
and want something different;
it does not mean that you failed. 
it means you have a higher vision 
and want something more. 
you will know what you want 
by how it feels in your heart.

in your corner, 

~me.
