Magic In These Moments

By Evan Sanders


There's some serious pressure.

Lots of pressure. The type of pressure that turns you into something you've never been before. The type of pressure that can crumble you or turn you into something amazing.

There's fury in this heart of mine right now. There's this strong pull I can feel tearing at me to go a different direction.

This is a huge pressure.

I've felt this building for some time.

It runs over your chest, up through your cheekbones and down the sides of your neck. It circulates through you like chaos incarnate.

It's begging me to do what I know I can.

It begs you to change your actions, to drop everything you've ever done before, to let the old pieces of you fall away and to usher in a new era for yourself.

But when you are scared it's incredibly hard to dive into this place.

Because I know that this version of myself, this version that I worked so hard to create...I'll just never be able to go back. I'll never be able to go back to the person I am right now because of the request.

It's okay to change.

And yet it's such a strange feeling.

It takes a lot of faith to drop into something new. It takes a lot of faith to step onto a path that you have no idea where it will take you. All you know is that it's going to take you somewhere great.

And to run purely on faith that it's the right thing to do?

And it takes dropping the fear.

And yet...

Even though you are running on a path that is forming in front of you, it doesn't feel at all unguided.

I'm here writing today, after days and days of thinking about all of this making a commitment to diving into all of it. My commitment goes beyond just writing these words...I've sealed it in many other ways.

Leave everything behind that you have to leave behind.

And step into something that will change your life. Never come back. Never look back.

All the logical arguments could tell me otherwise, but this is all beyond logic. All beyond what my mind could possibly tell me. This is in the depths of my heart.

Have big amounts of faith.

I'm leaving my mind behind on this one.

Trust you are headed in the right direction.
