A Swing At Life

MAP

Make a big splash.  Let the world know you are here.

We’ve been waiting for you to show up.  In a big way.

Because – you’re a big part of all that is meant to be.

What is meant to be? 

Whatever you want to create it to be.  But without you the world is incomplete.

You can hide, sit back and watch, stay under the radar but you’re still part of the picture.  A very dim part.

That is not why you came here.

You came [because of] what you desired to do.  And as long as you are doing that you are standing upfront and centre.  It [the world] spins faster when you step out and stand up.

As it does when every one else steps out and stands up.

Stepping out and standing up does not mean you have to be a movie star or on TV or the president of the United States.

If that is what they are here to do then they are stepping up to the plate and having a swing at life.

For you to step up all is takes is to do what yearns in your heart to be expressed.

If that means thinking us into the next world changing idea or baking cookies or sweeping streets – then do what you are here to do.

Nobody likes to sit on the bench so you might as well step up to the plate and take a swing at life.  Playing is not an option.  You cannot leave the field.

Nor can you idolize those on the field playing while sitting in the stands.

You are in the game already so it is time to step up and play.  Muster up your courage because you’re at bat.

So what if you swing and miss, or strike out – you stepped up and that’s all that counts.  Cheer yourself on for taking that big step into your life.

You are up at bat again right away.  So swing away and you will find your way to connecting.

And you will smile.  Because you are finally in the game.  The yearning is gone – you are here doing and being what you came here to do.

Celebrate that.

You stand out just from trying.

Step out and stand up to show us your true self.  There are no more reasons to hide.

And so many more reasons to try.

We are waiting for you.

No pressure – that is all up to you.

We will wait until the ends of time [for you] to start swinging.

Step up and try.
