I am beginning to see that what seemed to be a “falling apart” is becoming a dance of falling together, now.
I see the possibility of the writing of a book. I see the possibility of having something to say that might be useful and valuable…something that would be worth sharing. I see the possibility of having conversations with people that are important to them…that show them a doorway into change and into seeing the direction of their deepest desires.
The thing, now, this year, is to fully step into the energy of that potential; to step into that excitement and explore. The thing now is to be willing to try new things and see what happens…to make mistakes…to reach out and ask.
Ask.
Ask for help. Be curious about how things work.
The thing now is to own my intention; which is to look at anything that seems to be holding me back and walk to the edge of it. The thing is to learn, and play, and to experiment. My intention is to hold a light up to my fears and move through them. My intention is to discover, one way or another, exactly how friendly the universe is when I give myself over to it instead of battling it.
What could happen then? If i give myself more and more to this fire in my belly right now, and just keep doing the work?
If I keep doing the work of writing “a word, after a word, after a word,” as Margaret Atwood puts it, and begin seeing the patterns; what could happen? As I delve into the various puzzle pieces of my own story that have felt confusing, or painful, or that have felt like moments of courage and triumph…or inspiration and see what fits together, what might I discover?
If, conversation by conversation, I learn to have conversations that inspire others and ease their way in the world…if I can show them their deep connection to their own answers and their own inner guidance…what could happen then? How might life become even more beautiful for people around me? How might that create an amazing vortex of joy?
I would love to hear about your dreams and intentions for the new year. I would love to hear what’s happening for you. Write and tell me on the form you’ll find under this post! It could be goals, your heart’s desire, a dream, something you are moving away from, something you are moving toward…what would you love to see happen for you?
Happy New Year to each and every one.
