Inspiration to Remind You of Your Infinite Beauty

Picture Source

Do you jump? Do you take the leap, close your eyes and let yourself fall in love? How many times have you taken that risk before only to have your heart broken? Each time feels terrifying, feels like it’s the first time.

Each time it’s…only your heart.

Any new endeavor in your life takes risk, takes courage, and takes a greater love for yourself than you may think you have inside of you, but if you want to live, if you want to find true love, the career of your dreams, you must take that step forward, you must trust your heart. You must inhale once again, close your eyes, push yourself…whatever you must do to dive into the possibilities of your life.

There are moments when it is important to stand back and take your surroundings in. You do not want to leap into a “pool full of sharks” and you don’t want to get too involved into something that if you had just taken a bit more time with, you would not have regretted. But, sometimes, you must just push yourself forward to free your heart and your soul.

Do you picture an endless abyss from which there is no return? Do you feel like you will have to hold your breath not knowing when you will be able to come up for air again? When you fall into life completely, when you allow yourself to feel every salt water sting of the ocean’s waves, you are truly living. When you refuse to let your heart become jaded, only then are you fully living.

If you let yourself cry and feel when something hurts you, when you care about everything, when every word another person says to you is important, you are living entirely. You are diving into a wide open sea and letting every wave, every current direct and effect which direction you end up going. You are living from your heart and soul. You are not compromising anything. You are telling the world take me for who I am. You are living with all the courage in the world.

You are living.

Never go to bed ever regretting anything from your day. Say everything you want to say. Hurt no one intentionally. Love yourself limitlessly. Treasure everything. Your beauty is immeasurable and…this world would not, could never, be the same…without you in it.
