Share YOUR passion

I give you the Holstee Manifesto. Please read further about these two brothers who were starting a business at the start of a recession (2009). This is the inspiration for my blog title as the summation of the poster is clear: "This is your life. Do what you love, and do it often."

The belief is that radical change is possible...if you let it happen. Over analyzing is only human nature--everyone does this to a certain extent. So the point of this "chunk" of statements is=RELAX.

What these brothers didn't mention is we have a God who is a 'creator NOT a duplicator.' (Crazy Love, Francis Chan). I do tend to compare myself to others' lives...which is my source of over analyzing. The book also states: 'allow God to be as creative with you as He is with each of us.' In other words, CASSIE, LET GO! :) I find comfort by repeating this mantra: I WAS MADE FOR THIS MOMENT. 

As hard as it is, we all need to submit our hopes and dreams to the desirability of God. The timeline is unneeded. Throw away your roadmap as well, kids! You don't need one ;) Garmins won't help either!

Now the next clump of words states: LIFE IS ABOUT THE PEOPLE YOU MEET, AND THE THINGS YOU CREATE WITH THEM. SO GO OUT AND START CREATING. This is the season I've realized I'm in at the moment. This part I have no doubt. I was blessed with an abundance of WONDERFUL people at work in my life. Yes, some may be acquaintances and have meandered in and out of my life, but have made an impact FOREVER. Most of them unlikely...but God uses different settings and locations/points in time in mysterious ways. I've had "AHA!" moments at very random times with some random people. 

I do know that every day I am thankful for what unfolds and what I'm exposed to. It is happening for a reason...and the time frame has a purpose as well. Each day a part of the puzzle is getting revealed and our vision focuses (Pastor Kerry).

So...the last bit hurts a little because I do not realize this nearly enough: LIFE IS SHORT. In other words: CASSIE, STOP WORRYING! Agendas are not needed in this life, because REAL life unfolds soon enough. Enjoy where you're at NOW because that moment is a short memory in the grand scheme of things. 

WHEW! This blog thing is therapy, I tell you what. Thanks for listening to my ramblings. This has been on my heart. In the mist of life---I always remember where my passion stems from AND it is from these people here:

ENJOY the people you love...as OFTEN as you can. 

I love them to the ends of the Earth and back. They are the peanut butter to my jelly...the gravy to my mashed potatoes (ha! I just thought of that one).

Hold tightly to your inspirations...your passions...your dreams...they are all important to help us thrive. They are there to keep us motivated...keep us going in the right direction.

LIVE YOUR DREAM AND SHARE YOUR PASSION. This is my way of sharing :)

PEACE
