Do you ever feel like you want to walk left and right at the exact same time? Or maybe you know you should turn right but you so desperately want to turn left? At these crossroads, I seem to move millimeters right and left, back and forth, making absolutely no progress! After months of studying maps suddenly you experience a change of heart, or maybe the planets become perfectly aligned, and your heart and your feet agree!
I'm at one of those planet, aligning moments. And, as things seems foolishly clear, I wonder how do I ever get myself trapped in the back and forth struggle to begin with? If it's not 1999 and I'm a senior trying to make my choices align with my beliefs by forcing them together... like the two magnets Bella tries to force together in Eclipse, then I'm almost 30 stuck in the same, fruitless battle! The tragedy is, all the while my poor little family's progress is hindered by my struggle. They are the balloons at the picnic table waving joyfully in the wind, ready to fly and experience the exhilaration of soaring up to the clouds. I am the little circular weight keeping them prisoner near the ground, the fire ants, and the little birthday participants who happen to be holding pins!
Oh how freeing and glorious are the moments when heart and feet agree! I'm not sure where this yellow brick road is heading yet, but it's a beautiful new day and finally, my heart and my feet agree!
