Who’s in Control of the Future?
“Well, I am,” you say…Oh…Really? Were you ever really in control of the future? Or did you just THINK you were in control of the future?
The thing is that we never were in control of our future… No matter if we had a retirement plan, money in the bank, mortgage paid off, job security. How do I know we were never in control of our future?
Look at us now… are all of our plans keeping us feeling safe and in control now? Not really. In fact, for most people it’s quite unnerving not to know how long this will last and when life will get back to “normal”. In other words, we totally lost control of the future!
The truth is, my friends, we never had it to begin with! Nevertheless, people don’t feel safe. People needed the illusion of control to help them feel grounded and move forward into the future.
So, now what? Do we remain paralyzed by fear because we don’t have the illusion of control over our future? That’s not really the best option.
Here is our opportunity to actually LIVE HERE NOW. To be fully PRESENT and to feel the beauty and the freedom that this moment offers.
But how can I feel free to step out into the next moment when I feel like I’m going to fall? you ask.
My friends, didn’t you know that when you surrender your need to control what’s in the next moment and step out boldly here now, that is when you learn to FLY!
