“If you hold back from achieving your heart’s desires, you will become bitter and frustrated. If you hold back from expressing yourself, your creativity will stagnant. If you hold back from taking action, you will become impotent with timidity. Don’t stop anything. Learn your uniqueness flow freely.” - Deng Ming-Dao

This passage is from the book 365 TAO: Daily Meditations by Deng Ming- Dao.

There is so much truth in this. Sometimes I question if what I’m doing now is enough? Is it selfish of me to finally follow my own truth? When the odds are against me. When there’s people, like my own family who can’t understand what am I doing? The more I question. The more I know that it’s ok not to have all the answers. The important thing is to keep moving forward to where we want to go and not stay where we feel trapped. I don’t want to continue living my life through other people’s validations. I want to live it vibrantly doing what I love, with good intentions, aligned with my values and my purpose. That’s the thing about life, it’s unpredictable but if you pay close attention, it ultimately pulls us to where we need to be. Ultimately it is up to us to decide whether we welcome it and continue following it despite our obstacles. Are you holding back or moving towards your dreams?
