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
