Magnificent treasure
They wait patiently in the back of your mind, gently
reminding you from time to time of their presence. Each time
they come to the surface, you feel a tinge of longing and
wonder and excitement.
You consider them for a moment, and then you usually push
them back away from your awareness. Something, seemingly
more urgent, comes along.
Yet they never completely go away. Because there is
something in them that tells you about who you are.
What are they? They're the best of your unexplored
possibilities.
You hold on to them, keep them buried away, and cherish them
deeply in your own way. Maybe now, though, maybe it is time
to begin giving life to them.
The next time one of those unexplored possibilities reminds
you of itself, do more than just putting it back away. For
in the best of those unexplored possibilities, there is
magnificent treasure to be found.
