Hello, Beautiful One

"After a conversation on my fear of the world seeing me....who I really am...trying to imagine what it would be like to let people see me.  I was so terrified"

What if we let go?    (The power in Roaming) 
- by Melissa Anne Horvath-Lucid

What if we wrote a new story, the way we wish to see it? 
 
Maybe it would be a sentence, a paragraph, a short story, novel, or an epic series, but we don’t care, we just choose to write, to co-author the orbiting of our worlds for however long or fleeting that may be.  

What if we let go of the idea of time all together?  Surely knowing the ending isn’t more important than being in the present in the unfolding of the story.  Does not the question of where it will go feel crushing?  Is not moving with the inspiration of the soul, more alluring?
 
What if we traded the script, the script we’ve been given, for the script that emerges from the heart, from a place of freedom and full choice?  Instead of asking: 'What one does, interests, even goals', we asked instead: ​

'What does your heart say now?' ​

What if we opened up to the beauty of the expansiveness, the experience, the gift of the moment, uninhibited? 
  
What if we drew comfort from knowing that we both exist under the same stars?  What if we remember that we are made of the same stuff as the stars?  What if we started to breathe those stars into our soul?  Would we be connected then?  No fear exists here, nothing to control…just open expanse. 

What if we wrote a new story, the way we wish to see it?  

I laugh, when I think about the freest version of me…would the world be totally overwhelmed?  Probably!!!!  Whatever, the world can adjust!!  I long to just move and be freely.  To be flawed, fearless and fucking fabulous, all in the same breath.  To not censor, what an incredible thought!!!!

What if, years from now, when someone asked you about a time you felt completed uninhibited, 
 you thought of me, even if just for a moment.  You would have no words to describe, no name to tie to that experience, no label that fit,  only the deepest sensation of what that felt like to be completely uninhibited. You would have no hope of even explaining it to another fully?  Would it have been worth it?
