Intuition, Action and Risk

I met with a friend last night who is a sculptor. Her interest is in making molds of birds that are endangered, especially of vultures.
Last night she told me a story. She was watching a PBS special on vultures in Africa. A woman was being interviewed that runs a sanctuary in Africa. My friend was riveted. After watching the show, she went online and got information about where this sanctuary was , and who to contact. She went online and began a correspondence with the woman who runs this place. To make a long story short, my friend has bought her ticket to Africa. She will be molding vultures, eagles, and perhaps other birds that are being saved especially for her.
My friend trusted her intuition, took action, and a large risk. She followed her passion up to the very last detail. It takes alot of courage to do this.
What is calling to you? Where do you need to trust and act? What will you do, as Mary Oliver states, with your one precious and wild life?
