Oh, how I needed to read these words and be encouraged this way. Life is busy, hectic, and the days just start to blur together. I have been praying for greater vision, purpose, and clarity. And in the midst of difficult days, I hold on tight to God and His promises, but the truth of the matter is, He's holding on tight to me. Thank you for sharing this.

No matter what your faith, I think we can all agree that going through the motions and avoiding or just not being fully engaged in our lives (and the people around us) is the road to an incomplete life. If we are consistently searching but not engaging in the now, we lose any ability to see that THIS IS it. There are so many miracles right now. Don't lose the ability to see that especially if you want to feel success in any area of your life. Great article Alex.

I am 39 and realized the whole thing about "being" and not just "doing" a month back. As you say with the new path, you have to balance like learning a bycicle first time. Since today morning I was kind of dull and could feel that I am going through motions. Then I thought to google and see if there is something out there and here I find this article... You rightly put it, that it is always there withing you. It's just the matter of nurturing and accepting it. My whole life I have been thinking about what others would think about me. I am sure there are many who would agree with me. However there was always this faith that I am different and I can do it. I can be like others (not literally, I mean be confident and happy) and can do it better than others. Anyways, thanks again and wish you all good luck!
