40 Days of Inspiration


Picture
He kêhau ho`oma`ema`e ke aloha.
Love is like a cleansing dew.

It is. We never think that our house will not get dirty, especially in Hawaii, each footprint leaving its mark. Some leave no trace so light and careful; some drag in gravel and grime, but all create a story. Love is like the washing water; we do not begrudge the previous pathways, we simply wash away, ready for the new.

DAY 35: Give Love.

40 Days of Inspiration

Here we are, the last seven posts 60 days after  the 40 days started. After traveling through six states, countless kitchens and numerous mindsets, I returned to this yesterday, my first morning back on Kaua'i:

Totally appropriate, The Buddhists will tell you, you have to kill the Buddha.

To my mind, that means eventually, the very thing, person, belief structure, the anything other that your you-ness must be annihilated from your dependency until you can live on the sheer cliff of knowing your divinity,

Too much? Well, I did just land back on Paradise and I am waxing a bit philosophical over my Americano at Small Town Coffee before I drop back into my regularly scheduled programming. 

If you aren't ready to just realize you are a Super Nova, perhaps you can at least find one kind thing to say, five extra dollars for a lattee/wheatgrass, a loving stroll outside, or dancing to your favorite tune.

Theses are precious moments for me - the in between - and as I woke in a nest of sweet, welcoming from a dear friend (and first roommate on Kauai), thinking of all the things I had to figure out, here was the last piece of advice I got:

40 Days of Inspiration

Today a song. I love Cas Haley's voice, so distinct, you know it is him.  Often times we hear songs like this and think of another. How does it change when it is directed to you? Yup, to you from you.

How does that sit? The more we appreciate who we are - I think, maybe - the more we begin to understand who we are: the good, the bad and everything in between.

DAY 33: Sing.

Watch me.
I lay waiting;
the waters flow to me.
I surrender in patience;
kindness surrounds me.
I play
and the winds bow.
I kiss
and tall hearts soften.
I love
and the world embraces me.

In oneself lies the whole world and if you know how to look and learn, the door is there and the key is in your hand. Nobody on earth can give you either the key or the door to open, except yourself. - J.Krishnamurti

40 Days of Inspiration

It seems to be time for reckless abandon. Of ordering the luscious bottle of wine, slipping into the killer heels, and whole-heartedly leaping off that sheer cliff. Nothing too terrifying.

I am hearing many stories of people who are just ready for more: more abundance, more community, more this, more that.  They are ready to be filled with their full-er Selves.

So today, get into your feeling space. What are you feeling? That alone can be a tremendous amount of information.
Two wildly successful and brilliant women both recommended  Danielle LaPorter's Desire Map (thanks Carrie Flemming + Kat Tepelyan) and I have been digging it. And you might too, plus it's on sale right now. Take the time to feel out how you feel; how you want to feel; and make the commitment to get there.

Do good & get goods. @DanielleLaPorte's #DesireMap now 50% off. Half of proceeds go to @VDay. It's all HERE .

As you know, I am a dog owner and watching my pooch run around - tail up, tongue out - creates joy; she is boundless, unencumbered and pure. She is happy and people notice. I cannot tell you how many people complimented us - and by us, I mean the dog - as walked through the trails. After the fifth person, I started to pay attention because people were paying attention to her joy. Her joy didn't make anyone else feel small and it started a chain reaction around her; it spread.

DAY 29: Get into feeling good and roll around in it, tail and all.
