What It Feels Like To Live Your Life Purpose
This is no longer about something I am supposed to do.
This is no longer about my performance.
It is about trusting the life force within me.
I can feel it in my belly and chest. It is all around me. Like I am on a galloping horse tearing across the land. Both on a mission and surrendering completely to the play of the thrill.
