"How can you know what you're capable of
if you don't embrace the unknown?"
Esmeralda Santiago
Life is like a colorful paintbox needing to be used. There are numerous colors in the box waiting to be blended and splattered. There isn't just one way to create nor is there just one brush. We, as multi-sided humans, need to nourish all parts of ourselves to experience the life that was intended.
A friend introduced herself as a retired therapist. I laughed out loud at this narrow boring description. Afterall, she was a teacher, artist, writer, and in-depth spiritual leader. There is praise for modesty, but there must also be respect for what we have contributed to our personal life as well as to others.
Look into your paintbox. How many colors are you using? When did you last change the water? How many brushes are you using? If bored, you must hold yourself accountable. What have you secretly wanted to do ... dancing, singing, writing, travel. You have access to your inner spirit, and now is the time to splash some paint around!
