It’s an art, this living we do. You are the artist of your creation and your creation is all around you. How are you painting your life’s canvas today?

It’s an art, this living we do. You are the artist of your creation and your creation is all around you. How are you painting your life’s canvas today?


Today as you interact pause quietly and look into the unique face in front of you. Imagine you are able to read this face like a book.
Reading the joys that have been experienced. Reading the hardships and suffering that have been lived through. Reading on the face the grace and serenity, the welcomings, the rejections, the wholeheartedness and the fears.
As you read the face watch for the evolution. It’s embedded there too.
Story Lines can be invaluable when it is time to learn something. But when the teaching is over, the need for the Story Line is over. By letting go and moving away from the story we open up into even more of who we are.

A Mindful Practice for Today!
•Choose the Story Line that has stopped serving you.
•Firmly order your Monkey Mind to stop juicing the Story Line with attention.
•Tell your Inner Critic to walk away from it and find another Story Line that will serve you.
•Watch your Gremlin put the unneeded Story Line on the back parking lot of your mind.
•And now…settle into the aliveness within you…what do you notice?
•Keep me posted! I’m doin’ it with you!
“It’s only in the looking back do we see the straight and narrow.”

Once the decision is made, leap frog over the fears, the what-ifs, the shoulds and get into action!
Why? Because Over-Thinking creates paralysis. It sucks out the passionate and adventuresome nature of the original vision.

A gentle smile never goes out of style–
Nor does a listening ear or an understanding nod,
A helpful hand, a knowing wink,
A deep bow of respect.
These connections generate a life worth living.
Today may we dust off that which is not us
To utilize the ingredients of who we truly are.
Let the alchemy begin!
Mmmmm….something to sit with and contemplate.
Walk away leaving the deadlines in the dust.
Step into the lushness to what is unfolding.Â
What is alive in you now?
Dear Begin Againers,
What have you separated yourself from to be connected now?
Deep bow to the open hand…
Ann-Marie
