The Hunter or The Prince
We find our lovely selves pleading for Divine Intervention, hoping for a miraculous synchronicity, and seeking the perfect exit off our too busy highway of life. It would be more helpful to direct these thoughts towards personal steps of empowerment.
The need of outside assistance was implanted through childhood stories like Little Red Riding Hood holding out for the hunter. We were possibly groomed to be the very fine princess immobile in the castle awaiting rescue from the prince. These, my friends, are just that ... fairytales!
Positive progress is a result of using what is on hand. How about listening to a podcast like END OF THE ROAD by Michael Kokal or watching a video on ENERGY by Lee Harris? Smooth the rough edges by feeding your soul, not your fear.

Passage to Greater Understanding
"Creativity is not only a way of making beautiful things,
but a transformative way of seeing, thinking and
connecting with our deepest knowledge."
Suzette Clough
The mere mention of an opportunity for hands on art can be intimidating, as our minds immediately jump to established artists; however, what an individual can create is found streaming through thoughts, words, and deeds.
The important step is to get out of our own way. We do best if we set our ego on a time out chair, give our lovely selves permission, and let our juices flow. There is no right or wrong, and no singular mode of display. Free license is given to determine what and how we express.
Artistic nature can be found in a formatted garden, sketched in a book, splayed on a canvas, or in a geometric pattern. The gift is endless discovered in the spark of joy while creating. Art is a means to discovery, release and a passage to deeper knowledge.

Lingering Triggers

Actions Reflect Identity
Our lives are filled with options, which shall we choose? The first obvious step is to recognize what is before us while the second is deciding which will best resolve whatever we are facing. The third step is more than likely the most important which is taking action or follow through. All of these define us.
Too often we get stuck thinking about what will unfold, delaying advancement. We can unnecessarily become wrapped in our own fears creating the fallacy of deeper dilemmas. Although impulsive decision making can detour our growth, lingering too long is equally harming.
If there are too many resources, select which seem to have the greatest potential. If caught in overwhelm: select a trusted friend to share thoughts; spend time away in nature or retreat; and release turmoil through writing, art work, or physical activities. It is the action one takes that best defines who we are or long to be.

Captivated
In the instant of reacting with compassion, we open ourselves to the tenderness of life. Whether we experience a harsh situation or a warm-hearted exchange, living becomes an open ended excursion.
Without contemplating investment or exacting precision, we do not set the rhythm for outcome. We are captivated by each moment as it unfolds. When we open our hearts, life expands on its own accord.
With empathy, there is less judgement and increased opportunity to learn. When we are accessible to the passage of time, nuances direct us to what we normally do not see. Insight triggers kindness and a willingness to stretch and grow.
