All lit up
It has been a week since I wrote that I was into the 27th verse of the Tao Te Ching. I’m still in it.
“Living By Your Inner Light” is just an irresistible message to me right now. Maybe it’s because my inner light feels palpable in a way that it hasn’t before. It’s coming through my sight, my speech, my hearing, my touch.
Wayne Dyer writes: “Your inner light is more trustworthy than any guidebook, and it will point you in the direction that’s most beneficial to you and everyone you encounter.”
I can feel it happening.
Veggie delight
Call me crazy, but asparagus at $1.99 a pound today made me want to sing.
I spared the ears of the good folks in my Garden of Eden store.
But I bought two pounds.
Great creators
Coaching was so satisfying today. Two clients with progress on books they’re writing, among other wonderful strides they’re making. Another client who reached her goals with a flourish, including completing a film that had a highly successful showing in a film festival. It’s only the beginning for her.
I am endlessly fascinated by ambitious, creative people and delighted I attract them into my life.
Connecting you to your creative core …
Bucket List
My Game Plan column on Foxbusiness.com today prompted me to start a brand new Bucket List so I can start manifesting some pretty cool stuff. Check it out:
A grabber
I’m slowly test driving a new approach to my book. A powerful first line packed with potential that came to me while reading a magazine on a train.
I need to sit with this and let it develop organically. My excitement is growing.
(Don’t) Hear me roar
I have learned lately to recognize my own power and to wield it softly.
Priceless.
Pace
Simple pleasures today. A hair cut. Hot dogs at Gray’s Papaya. New lipstick and eyeliner using Macy’s gift card. Seeing a friend’s three-day-old baby girl (Welcome to the world, Azumi). Having tea with another dear friend. Leisurely paced work in the evening hours.
Nice.
The best policy
Talked to a potential date on the phone tonight. Asked if I like to ski. My response was to laugh out loud. Which made him laugh out loud. Which prompted me to say, “Are you kidding? I don’t even like to be cold.” Which made him laugh even more. Which prompted me to add, “I can be a bit of a prima donna.”
“You’re confident enough to say what you’re really thinking. I like that,” he said.
Wasn’t always that way. Glad it is now.
Sunday, Sunday
It’s been a relaxing yet productive Sunday. Worked out. Grocery shopped. Cooked a slammin’ omelette. Watched some HGTV. Kept up the home simplifying that has been my calling since this year began. Reveled in the open space I’ve created in my home.
My favorite kind of Sunday, actually.
Sitting on empty
In the interest of creating space for something I want, I did something radical today. I put my kitchen chairs (approximately 20 years old and outdated as can be) out on the sidewalk with a “Free” sign on them. I anticipate that sometime soon some new ones will come my way. The right ones.
I am patient.
