Nothing Ventured Nothing Gained…..

The universe is arranged backwards in one fundamental aspect: The fact that you do not get the courage to do the thing you are scared of until AFTER you have done it, always has seemed like madness to me. 

But if we weren’t frightened to do something then the the word ‘courage’ would have no definition and we wouldn’t gain the rush of the sense of achievement from having taken the risk and lived!
So this is how I feel today. I have challenged two fears in a day. This evening I am meeting with a bunch of total strangers to be creatively coached. Today I have made contact with someone who is extremely talented to see if we can explore and experiment with harmonising together. All of the above feels incredibly risky. There are lists of resistances queuing up in my head, regarding the cold and the wet and the tiredness …. And I just need to show up!
That’s it, I just need to show up, just as I am, holding my fears lightly and my hopes gently and see what happens in the energy between us. Whatever happens, I believe we shall be more than the sum of our individual parts.
By showing up, by venturing out on the autumnal eve, by adding us all together, this could be an adventure ….. And thus everything is to be gained.
When did you last have an adventure? I’d love to know.
