True Connection

Life is always walking up to us and saying, 

"Come on in, the living's fine," 

and what do we do?  

Back off and take its picture.

True Connection
We are meant to feel a connection to everything and everyone around us. We do not walk in this world alone. People, pets, nature and a host of many other things are in our lives every single day yet how many times have we not even noticed them?  How many times have we walked right by a flower and not stopped for a moment to really look at its beauty? How many times have we walked passed a stranger and kept our eyes down so that we didn't have to smile or say hello? For what? Why are we choosing to pass by all of the wonderment around us? What are we so afraid of that we choose to ignore life? It's time to open up ourselves even greater and understand that we are connecting to everything and everyone around us. The choices you make today not only effect you but many other things as well. Its' the same with connections. They will enhance our lives if only we are willing to be fearless and open to the possibilities that true connections will make us far more enriched if we are willing to connect.
