Life flight...

Life flight…

“What is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?” - Mary Oliver

I went to some sand dunes with friends yesterday. We had sand boards and sleds and were racing down the hills having a blast in the sun. There was a little family with an ATV riding around. Everyone was enjoying the moment . Until….

Life turned on a dime. The ATV had rolled over and someone was hurt badly. It took a moment to get help because no one had cell service. Finally help arrived. Then they took off and more help arrived. Then they took off and eventually life flight showed up. After a while they left with no one in the helicopter. It seems the rider may not have made it.

As I lay in bed last night I allowed myself to feel everything. For most of my life I have lived small, “safe" where no one could hurt me. Lately I have been better about stepping out of my comfort zone, and yet… The questioned lingered in my mind, is this all I want from life? Could I do more to step out and co-create with God a life beyond my dreams?

I don’t talk about it, but I would love to be married. I’ve feared speaking the words, so scared that anyone listening would feel the same way that I do: I’m not worth marrying. Who would want me? So today, this is where I get to start. I get to continue to feel those feelings while allowing space for magic and possibility. I will think of all the wonderful things that are possible and do my best to stay open while feeling the doubts until those doubts are ready to slip away.

What is something you can do today to create space for God to work His magic in your life? What do you want out of this one wild life?

Much love,
