Time to come forth
Time to listen
Time to follow
In the midst of all the chaos
There is a stillness
If you really listen
There is a voice
A voice long forgotten
Perhaps a voice
From lifetimes ago
S/he is telling you
That it’s Time
Time to come forth
Time to listen
Time to follow
Your Soul’s true calling
Time to finally do the thing
You truly came
To this planet
To do
You know
Don’t you
What that thing is
But you probably tell yourself a story
That you don’t really know
That you haven’t "figured it out"
Quite yet
For years I told myself a story too
About how I had to “choose”
About how I couldn’t really
Be or Do or Have it all
I couldn’t be the girl
Who talked about social activism
And entrepreneurship
And money
The girl who valued
Business seminars
And vegan protests
I couldn’t work with athletes
While ranting about spirituality
And humanity and the collective good
But I was wrong
Because the truth is
You can be whoever
You wanna be
You don’t need me
You don't need time
And you don't need
Permission
To be who you are
The other truth
Is that not everyone
Is going to like it
Not everyone
Is going to approve
Some will ridicule you
To your face
Others will talk behind your back
Many will follow you from a distance
Keeping closer eyes on you
Then your so-called enemies
But when you understand
That you came here
For a reason
It makes it so much easier
To tune out the noise
It makes it so much easier
To realize
That in the end
There is only One
You will have to answer to
Journaling Exercise:
So I’ll ask you a question
That one of my mentors
Once asked me
If I handed you a megaphone
And you had 30 seconds
To talk to the entire world
What would you say?
What message
What wisdom
Would you leave behind?
What would you want
Humanity to know?
Because that’s where
Your passion really lies
It’s in the conversations
You have
With your closest friends
It’s in the magic
Of what inspires you
And angers you
And brings you to tears
It’s the stuff that most of us
Keep to ourselves
Or write in our journals
It's the stuff on our Hearts
The real us
Unmasked
Unveiled
Knowing
That we may be mocked
Knowing full well
That people may have
Not-so-nice things
To say about us
And sometimes even knowing
Who those people are
But consciously choosing
Not to let it matter
Your purpose
Is so much bigger
Than your stories
It’s so much bigger
Than your fear
Joy is your natural state
It’s time for you to remember
To our collective growth,
