Leaping through fear into Forgiveness, Gratitude and Deserving!
Monday, December 8th, 2008So many times I have had days that would have been wonderful blogs. As I have mentioned before I am still taking leaps through my fear of writing. My days have been filled with intense feelings and experiences as if I had been slammed to the ground and then others thrown so high I am filled with joy and amazement. I have been looking at ALL aspects of myself in my work, my home, my relationships and my children. Big WHEW! Feeling a bit naked and uncomfortable. As I take a deep breath I know that this is a good place to be. Never thought I would think that being uncomfortable would be a good place. When I really look at years past to present I have carried patterns that no longer serve me. I have a glimpse where they rooted, how they have hurt others and held me back. So many people come in and out of my life yet there are a handful that have REALLY been there to support my growth. Looking at the strength it took for them to give those gentle reminders that I’m “not getting it!” Well, I have a glimpse now and taking action. What is that master key to unlock, let go and know. What is my destiny? I created boundaries that I can now see. I want to let them go into the wind and allow my life to soar.
On one of the most difficult days a friend called about having a chapter in a book out next year on Gratitude. Well, just minutes before I was so upset about life’s bumps. Gratitude? Half laughing and amazed. My first word I ever created in glass was Gratitude. That was about 2 1/2 years ago. In last three weeks I have had 4 request from people feeling they “need” gratitude. Hmmmm think I “needed” it again too? Only took about four knocks till I listened. How many for you? This world is not what it seems……. like the wind that carries the seeds we share from heart to heart a silent awakening. I think I’m listening and then realize that I can’t always hear with all the clutter within my mind.
This week in my glass and wood creations I stepped “into” the journey of what it means to fear-less. The next step was “into” deserving. So many aspects to deserving. Once I took the step I was amazed when I quoted a wholesale price for an item of $19.50 and they called back the next day asking if the price was really $19.50? They want to pay $40.00 Now, how is that for a “BIG KNOCK TO allow DESERVING” into my life.
Ok, I am going to get back to creating. Thank you for taking time to read this.
