What if 1 + 1 = Amazing?

Today I drew this collage at random:

The questions which most spoke to me were:

What opening needs your creativity?
What experience is stale?
What potential lies in “we”?

I’m not surprised. I’ve been craving co-creating lately and honoring the craving. The most delightful expression of this was Monday night’s play date with two other women. Staring at an amazing pay load of art supplies, we asked: “What will we do tonight?” and the answer we heard was: “Let’s create a single play doh sculpture!” And oh what fun we had!

Take a moment to ask:

What lone pursuit has stalled?
What would a partner, a co-creator offer?
Where does 1+1=Amazing?

A story that must be told …

Soul’s Desire Inspiration Card

Recently I wrote about the stories we tell over and over again and, in which, we get lost:

Lost in the Story

Today’s message is about the “I” that gets lost in the story. You came to this life as a unique and precious individual soul essence. You alone can discover who you are, what you are passionate about, who you will BE in this lifetime and what is yours to DO. You have a unique story to tell with the choices you make each and every day.

Maybe you don’t think this is possible. Maybe you don’t believe it. Maybe what I am writing is pure heresy to you. Maybe you have tried to be you and been shut down, put down, over and over and have given up. If any of this rings true, I would like for you to hear: “Try again. Your unique essence, your voice, is needed. Who you are matters!”

Here are just a few questions to jumpstart your exploration into who you are:

Who are you?
What do you stand for?
What is your deeper essence?
What is your conscience telling you?
What inner conviction do you ignore?
What potential is locked inside?
What purpose is worth it?

Infinite Possibility!

I selected this card at random today.

InfinitePossibilities4By6

Infinite Possibilities coaching card

Its questions pointed me toward infinite possibility from several perspectives. Here are just a few:

What illuminates your vision?
What distorts the view?
In what ways do you refuse to change?
Where are you out of resonance?
How do you embrace unlimited?
What future is worth creating?
What future is here now?

I am struck by the questions about the future as I’ve spent many years with “one day at a time” and “be present now” and “just this”. I wouldn’t trade those for anything! Yet, today I wonder: What is the future I desire, the future worth creating, the future I want for generations to come? I am creating that future with every action I take today. So are you. There is a very wise saying:

Today is merely the sum of past choices

So today is yesterday’s future, yes? Take some time with the questions above. Get clear on the future you want to live into. Dare to acknowledge where you are holding back, out of resonance, resistant to change and, therefore, blocking the very future you desire. Then, take action!

What bold steps will you take today toward Infinite Possibility?

Fly away with me!

Wings4By6

This morning, I pulled the Wings Inspiration Card at random. One question:

What keeps you grounded?

caught my attention. My spirit desires experiences like seeing the natural wonders in our world, yet my actions do not support my spirit’s dreams. Actions could be as simple as visioning, reading about those wonders, talking with others who have been there and allowing their excitement to rub off. What keeps me grounded?

  • Unwillingness to make time for those simple actions.
  • Beliefs that it will never happen anyway.
  • Waiting for someone else to make the first move.

Does any of that sound familiar? Today, take a moment and ask yourself a few more questions from Wings:

What captivates your spirit?
What uplifts your wings?
What keeps you grounded?

Finally:

What step will you take today?

What if it’s just a mirage?

I woke up after disturbed sleep and noticed depression, confusion and busy brain in my being. I selected a card to guide my inner connection time:

LookingForward4By6

The first thing I noticed was that there was a new chapter, new life, something more “around the bend”. This was both something to look forward to and something I couldn’t yet see.  How could I get *there* with my mental state blocking my view?

When I turned the card over, my eyes settled on this question:

What is just a mirage?

What if the current stream of thought, the current feeling of depression was just a mirage? If so, then it doesn’t really exist! What would I do, how would I proceed, if it wasn’t there?

And in that instant, I was free. I was free to choose to move forward in this day rather than deal with the depression or figure out what was wrong. And here I am, writing to you!

What about you:

What seems to be blocking your next move?
What if it is just a mirage?

What is truly possible right now?
