10 Toes Down

"Have you ever fought a bear, wrestled an alligator or been wrapped too tightly by a boa constrictor? Yeah...me neither but life hands you circumstance that makes me feel like choosing the bear, alligator or boa constrictor! 

Transformation happens in the oddest and not obvious spaces or times. Sometimes I resist even when it is futile and I'm left in this cycle of repeating because I didn't get the lesson the first time. I'm not going to lie...it sucks!

I want forward. I want ease. I want journeying and life goes "Watch this!".  That statement never is as fun as when a child says, "watch this!" and then performs some skip, hop and turn that is funnier to them than it is to the observers. 

I stand 10 toes down with belief in my gifts, talents and abilities and in those moments where the lesson is revisited, it can reduce me to my lesser self of disbelief. It leaves me asking if everything that I'm made of is real or just a mirage and that space is more terrifying than the bear, alligator and boa constrictor all combined together. ​

I hate to admit it but, on those days, filled with self- doubt...if approached by a bear and a repeated lesson....I choose the bear!
