Take a Leap

March 13

It’s so hard to make someone understand something you get, most especially in the case where this person blatantly believes otherwise. I’ve never been much of a sales person really. I’m not the type who can –or who has the guts to—sell something to someone who doesn’t probably want or need it.

I’ve been selling something HARD this past week, and I honestly don’t know how I’m doing. I’ve been getting so much help from people (and promise, I appreciate it a lot). It’s just so hard to make someone see something that appears so clear to you. Having to explain things seem to sort of remove the awesomeness of having understood something so difficult to others. It’s like no amount of explanation or words could justify the feeling that made you believe or made you change your mind. Much like kids in Christmas... I’ve always loved the feeling of Christmas. I can’t describe it. But I always knew the feeling. It felt good.

I’m glad that many people managed to open their hearts and minds to the feeling that I’ve wanted them to experience. Sadly though, people remain to not see it as most of us do. I can’t blame them. Feelings are tricky things. They get influenced by a lot of circumstances and situations and it’s really difficult to control them once in a while. In as much as I am now controlled by the positive feeling of opening up myself to something so good, they are equally entitled to embrace their feeling of betrayal, disappointment and mistrust.

I know though that sometimes, we are all just fearful of taking the leap into the unknown. IT IS SCARY. But oftentimes, the fear before taking a leap so great, makes it all worth it... and I’m looking forward to that moment. J
