Open Sesame

They say that our future is already written in a sort of mysterious script. The universe knows us best and is aware what supports our growth and development. We might not like a certain outcome, but when it arises, we have no other option than to accept it. Unless ... we look a bit further. Others state that this universe is already in each one of us. Does this mean that we can steer our future? Whatever is touching the truth, when we believe we can control our future, we are empowered to make things happen and take action.

Everyone of us arrives at milestone moments. Times where we need to direct our lives. Sometimes the choice we have, can be overwhelming. We see many doors and then we ask ourselves - with the keys we hold in our hands - which door shall we open? It should not be that we stay inactive too long. That does not serve us. All doors can seem interesting and we do not know what is behind these doors. What if each door is equally fascinating and offers advantages and disadvantages?

Uncertainty is present in each of the scenarios. That is perfectly fine. There is a scent of adventure in the whole story. Maybe that is the beauty of it all. To a certain extent we can decide how our future unfolds and we just need to feel confident enough that whatever crosses our path, that we can manage it well. It does not really matter which key we use, as long as we are ready to face change and growth. We need to move and be bold enough to walk our path through life. The future belongs indeed to the doers.

From a distance, the universe watches each step we take. When the big script is aligned with our steps, the door opens. If not, the door stays closed. Even an Open Sesame would have opened the door. It was meant to happen. Sometimes we do not agree on the master script and we do not understand why certain things occur, and other times we are just super grateful there is a greater power that loves us so much, that it creates exactly those occasions that make us who we were meant to be. So let's take action. The universe has our back. We can trust it completely.

Thank you universe,
