Don't Trade Your Soul For Safety
Don’t Trade Your Soul For Safety
Ray Taaffe
In our society, it is so easy to do.
The dream trickles into your mind, into your spirit, into your feminine creative essence- and then your “logic” your masculine side, comes in and tells you all of the ways it won’t work. All of the ways to be afraid.
Your parents voices echo, telling you the guidelines and bullet points that define success.
The media feeds you a picture you what you and your life should look like.
Your past re visits, “proving your logic right” and infiltrates you with fear.
Fast forward to years of living someone else’s life, unfulfilled, exhausted and maybe even a little numb. No job, partner, house or amount of money that isn’t so fully aligned and fused with your passion- will ever fill that void. Will ever be enough.
You will spend your time chasing a false picture of happiness, and you’ll likely experience blissful moments along the way… But how long will you be comfortable living with the what ifs, living a life going through the motions and just trying to hold all these fragile pieces together? How long will you be comfortable simply “not rocking the boat?”
Why trade your soul for safety, when that safety isn’t guaranteed?
Why trade your soul for safety, when that safety likely isn’t what is going to set your soul on fire?
Why put your happiness during this short human experience, in the hands of the media, another person, your parents or your own fear?
When we start following our intuition, acting on our hearts desire which are poured into us from spirit for a reason, we really do not fail.
We may miss a step, we may back track and then move forward, we may re direct many times on our path.
But redirections and temporary set backs along the path that fills you with immense joy and passion and purpose…. can hardly be seen as negative.
When you hit an obstacle on the path that is yours, that is authentically the life that you crave and that lights you up- you grow from it. It becomes part of the story that is your beautiful life.
When you hit obstacles on a path that is someone else’s story, another means to an end or a path that is simply leading you through the motions, full of “should’s and should nots”… you feel defeated. Resentment builds. Regret seeps in.
You can reroute at any time.
Your family can handle it, in fact they need you to do it.
You will make money.
You will be ok.
You have to decide, ask for support and act.
Not only do YOU need your unique magik and the fulfillment of your desires in order to become who you are truly, masterfully created to be... but the world needs it. This world desperately needs more magic seekers and dream chasers, risk takers, makers and shakers; giving permission to OTHERS to do the same.
Creating a new paradigm; of what life can look and feel like.
Raising the collective consciousness of the entire world to say “it is safe now, to live a different way. The way that it has been done, is not the only way.”
