I’ve done a lot of uncovering and
releasing in 2005. I have cleared a ton of clutter internally and
externally. I am the most myself I have ever been. I like that about me!
Honestly, I find the unwrapping of
self to be fascinating. It is like an unending nest of gifts. You unwrap
the first box and realize the paper (the belief) wasn’t your own or the
box (the form) no longer expresses you.
I have a friend who recently said to
me, “Terri, you have to allow yourself to fall into the silhouette you
are revealing about yourself.” (Thank you Rainbow Heart!) She’s right. I
had still been skirting around the edges of my silhouette much like an
artist when they begin a painting, sculpture, meal, or whatever form
they express with artistically. The image was in my head but I was still
perusing it from arms length.
As you have heard over and over again,
my home is my laboratory. I am always using it to support, re-create,
and empower myself. It is the reflection of me consciously and
unconsciously. Through my Feng Shui practice and experience, I have
found it to be a beautiful tool as I live my life more and more
consciously every day. At this moment, my closet is the top tool. I am
filling out my silhouette as I make new clothing choices. The new
choices are the physical representations of the inner, non-physical
changes I am making. I am choosing to embrace my magnificence.
Consequently, I am wearing and purchasing only items that I feel
magnificent in. I have blessed and expressed gratitude to a multitude of
items as I have waved good-bye! In doing so, I am creating lots of room
for more magnificence to enter my life.
Of course, it also offers me a
beautiful opportunity to trust. You see, I don’t have the whole
silhouette yet. However, Soul Coaching, Feng Shui, Healing Touch,
Conscious Languaging, Self-Appreciation, Playing, Writing, and
everything I do has taught me to stand where I am and what I need next
will appear as I need it. I just begin wherever I am standing. Embrace,
celebrate, and be in gratitude for what I do know and the rest will fill
in as easily and delightfully as I am willing to allow.
If you think about it, can we begin
anywhere else but where we are standing? The really cool thing is with
each step we then take, we are standing in a new place. We decide if we
did or didn’t like the step and then choose the next. Consciously or
unconsciously, it is happening. I don’t have to have all the answers.
Either way, I can only take the step that is right in front of me.
We stand today at the end of a year
with one foot lifted to step into the new year. Where are you standing
and where are you stepping? I am stepping into my silhouette with love,
joy, kindness, and trust. My step is a dance step as I live what I know
about my truth in this moment.
As a way to wrap up my year, I would
like to share with you a blessing I use that is loosely based on the
Meta Kindness Blessing.
I am at peace
My heart is open
I am awake to the light of my own true nature
I am healed and I am a source of healing for
all beings.
May you be at peace
May your heart remain open
May you awaken to the light of your own true
nature
May you be healed and be a source of healing
for all beings.
May there be peace in the Universe
May the hearts of all beings open unto
themselves and all others
May all beings awaken to the light of their own
true natures
May all creation be blessed and bless all that
is.
I see each of you lighted from within
by your own beautiful spirit. I see you each standing poised to step
into the new year with an open heart and abiding peace. Bless you and
all whom you love!
With deepest respect and gratitude,
Terri
