My kids have just become adults. It’s left me bubbling over with memories, lessons learned, gifts of the past appreciated, and many mistakes which, have left me thinking, “God, let my kids know better than I knew.” Let anyone know better than I knew.
I’ve been experimenting all covid season with this idea that I can influence what is created in my day by releasing this antiquated idea that my day “happens” to me, as if I’m a victim of circumstances outside me. I’ve made magic. I spent a month imagining for some reason I don’t yet know, imagining what my ideal kitchen would look like. And soon, circumstances showed up where at no cost, my kitchen cabinets were redone, money came unexpectedly to buy new lighting, new furniture. It never touched my checking account. I imagined a new job by how it would feel, what I wanted to see myself doing, and most importantly that it challenge this old idea that it has to be painful to earn it. Out of nowhere, circumstances showed up where I received freelance work to create what has yet to feel like work, with people who would make me feel like I was magic. And the magic happened. Life feels like a thrill these days....and it’s come with nothing that feels like effort, but in fact, joy. It’s changed my life. And it’s frankly, left me grateful for this time to make beauty out of an unprecedented time of chaos. This quote comes from an interview that can be found in “What the Bleep Do We Know.”
