My box
Really up against it - my box of certainty, figuring it out, every possible scenario. It’s like, that’s gotten me by so far in life, but it won’t work for what’s next for me, me being more powerful than ever. I could go through the days managing things, making to-do lists, having everything handled and prepared for, and there’s nothing wrong with any of that. However, it all leaves me asking, is life really about the doing? What would be the point? As Dave Peterson, Center Manager in Seattle, told me last week, try on that life is about inventing new ways of being, not about just getting stuff done. What a freedom to play and create life! - rather than survive it and feel that pressure like there’s somewhere to get to.
I have this vision of myself, powerful, mature, straight-shooting, industrious, yet warm, loving, compassionate, and playful, creative, and exuberant. Just for the hell of it…
