Change a'Coming; OWNING the Biggest Paradox of All (my most important post this year)


The best titles say everything. A big change, a big move is a'coming for me; my key of intentions and seeking has found the lock that fits. I will share more soon, but for now, I must acknowledge that with the gift comes responsibility.

I've been talking a lot on here of late about paradoxical lessons; how two things that sound opposite are both applicable in what I've been learning lately about spiritual and business growth.

And meanwhile, perhaps unconsciously, I've been ducking the biggest paradox of all, alluding to it occasionally but with denial and unconsciousness.
Here it is:
I cannot produce more than I consume, or write books, or build a business--all of which are manifestations of the physical world--without a physical body!
There, I said it.
When I ask myself, as directed by both spiritual and business advisors, "What do I have to give?", the answer "Show how to be 80lbs and still able to shovel snow" is neither responsible, nor generous to myself or others, nor a meaningful contribution, nor--dare I say--is it playing my highest game, giving the best that I have to give.

So. I'm facing the prospect of a big road trip to a new home with gratitude and excitement.
And I'm owning and acknowledging that a migration of physical body and worldly possessions requires a well-maintained body as well as a well-maintained vehicle.
Even more important: I'm owning and acknowledging that just saying this isn't enough--like the African proverb, "Pray, but while you're praying, move your feet," I'm acknowledging, and I'm taking action.

I'll share more details soon, but I wanted to put this intention out to vibrate in the universe asap.
Please cheer for me!!!
