There is this feeling of being on the edge of something great that keeps hovering around, yet can never be caught. Professors allude, TED ignites, friends talk, and my mind wanters to the potential we are all standing upon.
The kicker? Everything I know of has been done before.
It's the unknown, the gift that our story brings to the table which holds the potential of greatness. And it takes a lot of guts to share that gift, because it is so unlike anyone else's. Craving familiarity and comfort and stability I cling to what has always been instead of reaching out to what could be.
In the thick of the pursuit, I am trying to pin down exactly what my story is and how it's going to play out. What is my gift going to be and how can I harness it for the greatest good?
Ultimately, will I be satisfied with the story my life has told?
The answer at this point is no. What needs to be for this answer to be yes each and every day? For me to wake up in the morning, and even before anything is checked off the checklist for me to say, yes - I am satisfied with the story with my life has told.
