Standing at the start of a new week, possibility stretches before us like an unfurled canvas. What will we create this week? Our Teacher for the week is the whirling dervish of poetry, Rumi, urging us to embrace the boundless potential that lies within each of us. Daring us to dream big.
“Stop acting so small. You are the entire universe in ecstatic motion.” – Rumi
“Let yourself be silently drawn by the strange pull of what you really love. It will not lead you astray.” – Rumi
“Anyone who genuinely and consistently – with both hands – looks for something, will find it.” – Rumi
“God has created your wings not to be dormant, as long as you are alive you must try more and more to use your wings to show you’re alive.” – Rumi
“You have escaped the cage. Your wings are stretched out. Now fly!” – Rumi
“What you seek, is seeking you.” – Rumi
We are not confined beings, but vibrant expressions of a vast and dynamic cosmos. Yet, fear often clips our wings, whispering anxieties of failure and rejection. Rumi assures us with unwavering conviction that the universe conspires to support those who chase their passions with unwavering determination.
Passion is a tricky word though, how do we find it, how do we know what it is? Here, Rumi offers a profound truth which we only grasp when we remember who we really are… we are souls, having a human experience…
Our soul’s deepest desires hold an inherent compass, guiding us towards a life of fulfillment. Listen to the whispers of your soul, the unconventional yearnings that tug at your heart. They are the map to a life of extraordinary experiences.
The reason you are acting small is because you have become identified with your fears, you have forgotten what you are and the fear of possibly failing has kept you from spreading your wings.
So, dream big. This is your reminder that what you are here for, is to be the expression of your soul. The world deserves to see you at your best, so start by allowing yourself to dream your BEST dreams.
Mantras to help you spread your wings:
- “I am a vast universe of potential, brimming with unique talents and unwavering love.”
- “I will allow myself to dream beyond limitations, embracing the whispers of my soul.”
- “My failures are stepping stones, guiding me towards the fulfillment of my greatest desires.”
- “With unwavering passion and a heart full of love, I will create a life that reflects the expression of my soul.”
Let this week be a testament to the boundless potential that resides within you. Unfurl your wings, embrace the wisdom of your soul, and soar towards the fulfillment of your fearless being.
I hope you dream really big this week!
