Dayne, this post is awesome! You write with such clarity and ‘raw truth’.. it is so authentic, and I get goosebumps! lol
my fav. parts here are:

You realize that 90% of things don’t ever go the way you planned. So you learn to surrender. You still set goals, you just don’t rely on future expectations.

You learn that FEAR really is just a four letter word. Just like the word LOVE. Both are simply feelings. Both are something we will experience in waves throughout our life. When we can simply surrender to both, life moves like a beautiful, cool, crisp mountain river.

Thank you for writing, and I am grateful to be here today.
Much luv,
Jenn

You’ve painted a glorious description of what I call “moments of total awareness.” And we realize, that in this vast and wonderful universe, we take part–we fit! And I love those moments of knowing that we, and life, are beautiful.

Hi there Tristan, thanks for your comment. I am in total agreement with you on connecting on how we see ourselves in others vs. our differences. It takes a bit of work, but when do it, we become humbled and more kind.

Thanks again!

Hey there Diggy! Funny you should mention having those moments while being absorbed in music and moving in a car. Without a doubt, I have had those moments as well so I can relate to you on that. Isn’t it great?

Thanks again Diggy!

Hey Justin, I really love that line as well. I wanted to make sure that people understand that it is ok to have goals, but to not put too much emphasis and happiness in achieving them necessarily. If they do, that is good. If they don’t, it’s not the end of the world.

I’m glad you enjoyed the post and once again, thanks for commenting!

Cheers,
Dayne
