Peace lovely ones,
I was thinking of you'all and wanted to stay connected. There's a lot going on internally and externally. I like to use the "box" analogy...in many ways I feel like my insides can be catagorized or "boxed"...for example, theres the career box, the romance box, the spirituality box, the leisure box, etc. etc.....but for a long time the spirituality contents were in the romance box, or the romance contents were in the career box...you get the picture. Things can be out of order on the inside. Using the wrong things to "fill" us. And of course, its not as simple as the box analogy in real life. Because there are some themes that should string throughout each box, that overlap and interchange. What I'm realizing is at the center of the equation is our relationship with The Higher Power--which expresses Itself in various forms and holds many names: The Peace...Pure Love...Truth. When we commit to experiencing this--irrespective of what happened in the past, or what's going on in our external lives--then assessments, cleansing and reogranization can occur. The turmoil starts to settle--so we can think. be still. listen. take survey. not from a place of panic, where we're trying to cover the discontent w. whatever we can get our hands on......Nothing can go in that Higher Power box but The actual Higher Power--when we come to anything else for the Peace that only The Source of All Peace can give--we end up dissapointed, disillusioned and confused. And because that box is in misuse, it throws everything else off. Conversely, if that box is given its proper contents: its proper respect, honor and attention--it enables the proper arrangement of all our stuff. Some things need to be cleaned and refurbished, some things thrown out.

When we feel The Peace thats inherent in our being (and give up looking outside for it, realizing we can't guarantee its staying power when it comes from the outside), we see things for what they are and what they should be. And we can make the necessary shifts. "Oh no!! I was pursuing law because I thought Daddy would be proud but...I don't really want to do this--I'm an artist"..."Oh my goodness--this man that I loved, and thought lovved me--treats me like CRAP!! I put up with this??" Aha!! Clicks, bells, whistles....the light is on. And you get passionate about living. Really living...

You realize you're here for a reason. Your Soul isn't just taking up space. Its come to add color/vibrancy, make an indent upon the Universe, shape the world towards Oneness and Love...Health and Well-Be.Ing. This is your service. Discharge--or perish inside.
