“We can't be afraid of change. You may feel very secure in the pond that you are in, but if you never venture out of it, you will never know that there is such a thing as an ocean, a sea. Holding onto something that is good for you now, may be the very reason why you don't have something better.”
― C. JoyBell C.
I’ve been thinking a lot these days about doing what I’m good at versus doing what I’m passionate about. As I am learning to follow my passion, it means several big changes in my life - changes that may or may not turn out the way I expect. It is a huge risk. But without great risk, there can be no great reward, right? I’m grateful in times like this to have my faith. It encourages me to take a step into the perceived darkness, with the hope of a light.
I might fall flat on my face. I might end up a year from now right back where I started from - or even behind. Or I might be the happiest, most fulfilled I’ve ever been. But I won’t know if I don’t venture out.
Fear of change. Fear of the unknown. Fear of judgment. I’m letting go of all of these. I know I was made for greater things - now I’m out to seek them.
