"Just Jump" into the sea of INSPIRATION...

Ok, so I'm not a big facebook "note tag" person....meaning when people tag me in their notes, I rarely if ever read them because I usually get tagged to the notes which have you fill out a random survey of how you know the person who tagged you. Quite frankly, I find this as a waste of life so I don't bother reading. However, this morning at 7am I was tagged in a note by my friend (I won't mention her name for privacy purposes) and she wrote this note herself and it was so inspiring and well written, I just had to post this.I originally wasn't going to bother to read because I never read those loads of crap but something enticed me to read it and I am sooooo glad I did.  It sums up a lot of what I have and am going through and I am so glad she tagged me because evidently this spoke directly to me. I love it and I honestly cherish it. I hope you do too. What a clever chick she is. Here it is. This is entitled, "Just Jump." Jump right in and read =)

JUST JUMP

Sometimes we meet people in our lives that God may not have intended for us. We have our share of good encounters and bad ones....each tested who we are, who we've become and who we want to be. At the end of the day I think that I’ve been lucky to meet both.




I've had the best people enter my life and I've had the worst. I've had people who have lifted my spirit so high and made me learn so much, enriched my life in ways they will never know and made me grateful to be alive. I've had the worst people enter and leave my life who broke me down, made me question my self worth, and tested me to see how strong and how much I could really take.



We've been in love and fallen out of it. We've had our heart open and broken. We've given too much and gotten too little, but I've also gotten so much from both of those. Sometimes its the people in your life who hurt you who actually help your inner YOU more than you know. It's when someone pushes you to the edge....when they make you wanna jump...when they make you feel like you have no options...that you get the strength...



I've been on that edge of a hopeless cliff. I've had all my emotional baggage strapped ot my back....so heavy and about to tip me over...and it is at that moment...that I chose to jump.....



and do you know what happened?





I flew....



I let go, I was FREE. I jumped from that ledge of insecurity, of false promises, of endless tears and unbearable grief, of misery and denial, and I left that girl behind. I left everything that I thought was comfort and realize there was more beyond the horizon...just past that cliff's edge....to a place that was not known....and not secure....and away from all I thought was real.....and I soared. And I've never looked back





So sometimes we meet people who push us to that limit....because God wanted us to learn that life is all about risks....and it requires you to jump. Don’t be the person who always has to think "what if" ..... take a stand, a stand for yourself....for all you are and all you ever wanted to be...let go of what holds you down, what hurts you...what makes you think you cannot FLY.....





And just jump.
