Bright, Beautiful Star

Your energy and vitality

Turn them up, bring them out

Light your fire and burn crazy bright

Let your flames singe you and dare you and lift you

To do more, more, MORE!

More than you ever imagined or dreamed or hoped for

Glowing with your truth and flowing with your intuition

With your spirit wild and free

And your mind light and open.

Come, come, come into this magical place

Your love and passion and mercy and grace

Are waiting to fill you up, fill you all the way to overflowing

Stretching, leaping, blooming and growing.

Let yourself go; let yourself feel

The power in you that is real

Take your place in the cosmos and rise

You bright, beautiful star with luminous eyes.

How Would It Feel to . . . Stretch?

Beyond all boundaries. Right up to the edge and over.

Beyond the self-sabotage and deprecation. “Oh, I can’t! I’m just not good enough”? Gone. Vanquished. Wiped out.

Beyond the critics and naysayers. The founts of doubt and pessimism. Block them out. Tune into your kick-ass frequency and take the world by storm, dammit!

Beyond the trepidation. The fear. The “What if I fall?” and “It would SUCK to fail.” Brace up. Believe. Your future’s calling and urging you to unfurl those wings. Pack light.

Beyond the pain. The depression. The heartbreak. The past. It happened to you. Why let it define you as well?

Beyond the dilly-dallying and second guessing. Do it or screw it. Either way, DO something.

Beyond questioning your ability, right, or sheer balls to do so. The short answer is yes. The long answer is you have a gift to share with us all.

Beyond the disappointments and setbacks. Caving in weakens the spirit. Pushing forward strengthens it. Get yourself a cheer-leading posse to point out the rainbows when you can’t see the sky for your tears.

Beyond burnout and exhaustion. Running dry is part of the human condition; ignore the signs at your own peril. Build a self-care practice to meet your needs and refresh your spirit.

Beyond narrow mindsets and blinkered vision. Life is organic. Let your spirit soar wild and free. Fact: Innovation does not favour closed minds.

Beyond hushing your truth and hiding your enthusiasms. Boldness leaves an indelible mark on history. Every time.

Beyond believing it’s all right for others to shine but there ain’t enough space for them and you. Hogwash. We are all bright stars. The cosmos form our playground. Light is our heritage. Word.

How would it feel to stretch beyond every challenge and reach the rare jewel on the other side?

I’ll tell you how it would feel. Fan-freakin’-tastic. :-)

Gouge the Surface

Much of everyday life takes place above the surface. We run errands, talk to people, buy things, drive from point A to B; just a few of the things we do on autopilot. You know, part of the rote and all that.

But what about the rest of the iceberg? What about the multitude of ideas and dreams and treasures below the surface? What about the light buried in the darkness because we can’t find the time to air out our coffers?

The surface is a seductive place. It is level, familiar, comfortable. We settle into an easy rhythm, power on day in and day out

until

something

jolts us.

What are you doing? Where are you going? Are you working by instinct or rote? Are you fuelled by passion or necessity? Who are you? Continue reading
