Sometimes I have the feeling that all our doing, our being busy, our effort in filling up our lives with things, with people, with experiences, it's just a way to avoid listening to what wants to emerge. You may give it different names depending on your culture and your upbringing; call, vocation, purpose. Whatever the label you decide to use, you know what I'm talking about. It is that feeling like when you fall in love with someone. And no matter your will or your reasoning, it's a force that pulls you towards the other person. It is a beautiful feeling, but it is also scaring. Because to live it fully we need to let go of our desire to control, we need to surrender and welcome the not knowing.
