Stepping in to the Wide Open

Are You Living the Life You Want?

As we step in to 2011, I am finding myself rather contemplative. I haven't considerable free time with which to ponder, but, I do my best to make it a priority to find minutes within my waking hours to quiet the chatter in my mind, to read a selection of pages in a given book, or to journal my thoughts. With our busy, demanding schedules do you allow yourself time to think, time to feel, time consider where you are and are you living the life you want?

There is a wonderfully inspiring blog I visit now and again - and for the life of me, this morning I could not recall its name or link - from the time my girls were old enough to understand, I have taught them the first thing to do when you feel overwhelmed, or lost is to stop, and breath deep so you may think clearly - so, as I sat snuggled warmly on the sofa in my studio, reading, contemplating, and experiencing frustration with early onset of memory loss unable to recall the name of this lovely blog, I breathed in, breathed out, breathed in, breathed out, knowing, patiently waiting, trusting what I needed would come to me - and it did!

A Beautiful Ripple Effect and Carolyn Rubenstein always touch on so many heart levels. Today's heart-touch is about creating community. I believe we are created to need community, our hearts seek connection, we have a need to be loved, to have someone be present with us, to be acknowledged as making a difference, to know and to feel peace and satisfaction. Do you feel this is so? I'll be the first to profess I yearn for personal connection - it's my human nature (and nurture for that matter).

There are three places you are invited to connect with me -

****************************

We are on a life journey together, seeking to create the life we each want, our souls reaching toward one another in one way or another seeking fulfillment of connection. As I continue in my life journey 

this year . . .

I shall as many times as is required

Let Go of all of the Past

and Intend to Travel Lightly

(it is gone, it is done, it is over)

I've never cared for reruns any way, so why spend valuable, precious time rerunning the past in my mind.

that door is closed!

I Shall Step, with my Hand in His, into the Wide Open

and Take Responsibility for my Dreams

breathing in, breathing out, breathing in, breathing out, knowing, patiently waiting,

trusting what I need will come to me

I Shall Continue to Create Freely from my Real Essence, my Truest Self - my Soul

staying true to my path, my authentic gifts, and unique story

offering a reflection of my Heart's Desires in the products that result from my creation

I shall create balance & bliss

living intentionally, with purpose, walking with joy in the embrace of

my family

my faith

my friendships and community (you!)

my creative expression.

As you step into 2011, dear readers, I wonder, are you giving yourself the gift of

breathing in

breathing out

What steps are you taking to create the life you want?
