Have you ever thought we are like blocks of granite and inside, there you are, a ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________. (you fill in)
You are the sculptor that can chisel away the unnecessary and reveal the true, or truer you. Michelangelo is not here; remember, he chiseled away what was not, in order to reveal his artwork.
We are capable of releasing the unnatural, to experience more of our… naturalness.
I know because for decades I’ve been observing and soul searching, trying this and that; letting go, exploring a variety; sensing, listening, journeying down this road and that one… even the oops another dead end, turn around, it’s okay, find your way back, Sharon.
I’ve sculpted away and found parts of myself that are an athletic naturalist; a mind, heart, hands for serving people with their health. Later on, an artist; a woman who likes to sew simple things; a persistent spirit who likes to play simply written songs on the piano and strum the guitar at a beginner’s pace even if it’s been a long time trying to learn; a woman who loves to write; a mother whose greatest gifts are her children and who now loves being Mimi to my grandchildren; a gardener; a human aiming to remember each day to have a set intention; a human who will not give up on seeing a better world; a spirit and person who supports You.
You are the sculptor. What have you discovered already and what more will you find?
This journey may take time, effort, and practice. It’s worth it.
Some will begin on one path of expectation, and then come to an AHA! THIS IS IT FOR ME! Along the way, they hear something new from within or are drawn to something deeper. A door opens and they walk through it.
So, what doors have you walked through lately?
This is of course, if you want to. Only you really know.
With love,
Sharon
