Dare to Dream

As children we can do anything. We believe we can fly to the moon and will create ways to do it. Even though it may appear as if we haven't even left the backyard. As we get older we are told more and more to stop "Daydreaming", to "Get our mind out of the clouds". How many of us have allow our minds to wander off into nothing when sitting at the office, a desk or sometimes in the middle of a conversation? I have.

At what point do we lose that part of us? Does it happen automatically when we turn 18 or 21? Does it happen when we reach our 30's as this is when we are "Suppose to settle down and be responsible"? I can not help but hold onto the thought that we don't really stop dreaming, it is more likely that we are being told what is "acceptable" to dream.

For me Dreams are obtainable possibilities that I aim for. The great things about dreams is they do not ever have a deadline. Dreams also have no limits. When I give myself permission to imagine reaching a dream, that child like wonder and excitement reappears. I love the way it feels so I dare myself to dream daily.

How often do you?

My dream for this year is being created and I will share it with you once I have finalized it. Until than. My guidance for today is:

Sleep (unsure), Heaven is watching (unsure), & Don't Compromise (unsure)

Crystal Skulls

I was in a local metaphysical shop earlier this week to pick up a new crystal (as you can never have to many). I used to love going into this store when it was in a different location. The feeling isn't as welcoming and it smells. Enough said on that.
As I walked around I noticed that they had a few new things one of them being, "Crystal Skulls". I immediately flashed to the more recent Indiana Jones movie and a SG-1 episode, this of course had me chuckling. I continued perusing and was accosted by a young girl walking around with her friend. They were obviously new to this type of stuff, full of questions, side comments and loud bantering. I answered the questions they were kind enough to wait for. I could tell the clerk was attempting to keep them interested. I made my selection, purchased it and was headed out when this same young girl came at me with a "Crystal Skull", "what is this for, why do they have this, what would you do with one, these are so weird." I looked at her with wonder and replied. "Would you like the real version or the Hollywood version?" I lost her because than she walked away asking "What movie where Crystal Skulls in?" I left gladly leaving the clerk with them.

The reason for me writing about this is due to the current belief's that are flying around about the "2012". Did I lose you? I won't go into the connection as it maybe to long for this letter. Needless to say, my questions are "Are you afraid the world is ending in 2012?", "If so how is this belief effecting the life you are currently living?"

What to do?

It's the beginning of the year, do you know where you are going? Better yet do you know where you want to go? When I ask clients what they want they immediately reply "happy", "rich" or "lose weight" . While these see simple and reasonable, the question still remains "How do you plan on getting there?" For most the to do list begins with; if I just do this or if I did that I could do it. The next statement is "How do I motivate myself to do it?". Well first motivation comes from the excitement or value you may receive from doing something. If you are not excited it isn't going to happen, because your heart isn't into it. Now, what are you willing to give up or do to receive the benefits from achieving these? Yes, you do have to give something up.

Here is a challenge my challenge to you; have you ever planned a trip? What did you do to prepare for it? What steps did you take to make it happen? How excited where you to go?
