Is your Soul pushing you to take a leap? Don’t run and hide.
Crossroads are a prelude to transformation.
There have been many crossroads in my life and it wasn’t always easy to live up to the expectations of my Soul. At each crossroad, you have to stop and re-evaluate the script of your life and ask yourself:
Where am I going?
Is this path aligned with my Soul’s calling?
When I met my current husband ( while he lived in Taiwan, I lived in Singapore) and shook his hand, my Soul whispered, “This is the man of your life. He’s the one.” I was shocked because I was already married and thought we were happily married. I answered that I couldn’t leave on the spur of the moment.
But my Soul was very clear. She said: “Do it.”
That crossroad definitely made me re examine my life. People advised me to stay in my marriage. They wanted a good explanation. They said: “It won’t work out and you will regret your choice.”
Rationally, my first husband had it all and our life in Singapore was fantastic but deep down my heart yearned for something more.
To make a long story short I listened to my Soul and left him, leaving myself with no money, no job, and no home. Everybody thought I was crazy. How can you just follow your heart and give up everything when you only know a guy for 4 days?
Of course, it was heart breaking even though I knew this was the only path to take.
The truth is when you want to be true to your authentic self, sometimes you’re asked to risk it all because you believe in the guidance of your Soul.
I gave up my certainties to move to Taiwan and live with a man I barely knew. Destiny is clearly not concerned about location. At that time, we’d only spent four days together since our initial meeting half a year earlier. We had only spoken by phone a few times.
My heart knew enough. We married – the only Dutch couple – according to Chinese tradition, with 12 other Chinese couples, and our first child was conceived in Taiwan. We now live in America with our five children.
Are you wanting to take a leap? If your Soul says: “Do it”, do it, and jump! You’ll be okay.
I’d love to hear from you.
To your courage!
