I want you, anyway.
It seems in this life we constantly strive towards perfection. It’s part of the human condition I say, to constantly seek Better.
I love us for this, for this painful striving. It’s a beautiful gift that births invention, evolution, and expansion.
It’s a beautiful curse that takes us from gratitude to “never enough”. We want the broken things fixed, and the empty things to be filled. Then we want to break the fixed things, and empty what is full.
In this ever-pulsating, boiling stew of creation – where do we find love? Where or what is that thing that we want to roll around in bed with, to spend time refining and building and appreciating?
How do we define purpose?
I propose that your love is that thing you want unconditionally. When there is no time or space for it, but you still you find a way to make time and space.
I invite you think of something that is Yours. An activity or an idea that always lights up for you. Even if it has never seen the light of the manifested world, only lived in the spaces of your mind.
Maybe you’ve tried to bring it to life before, and failed.
Maybe you’ve tried to bring it to life before, and it was ugly. It didn’t look like the idea in your mind.
I invite you to love it anyway. To squeeze it into your life where it doesn’t fit, to lean into its inconvenience. And when you try to grow a piece of it, and it doesn’t work…say “thank you, I love you anyway. I want you anyway”.
I found that true love, true creation from the heart, speaks the language of non-condition. It says yes no matter what.
Say yes no matter what to your creation of choice. Find the yes, find the space no matter what.
If you feel push back, pause. And say, “Ok, I’ll listen. Talk to me.”
I’ve found that this is the language of the universe. It looks for openings, for flow. It doesn’t care if it’s pretty or refined or perfect. If there is space, opportunity, it says “GO”. And as the space widens or flows better elsewhere, it’s “Go there, now”.
If there is no space, it pauses…because Space and Flow are inevitable. An opening is imminent, in perfect timing. So be ready to say yes, even to the tiniest “GO”.
And in this, you practice ‘riding the waves’ with energy, with the universe. You feel how it moves, how it is never dismayed. Because it looks for movement, flow, and timing. All else is less relevant in the attitude of creation. All else, is what it is. Let it be.
Here is the ultimate secret: when you say I could do that “but”, you are not speaking the language of creation. When you say I want to do this “and”, now you’re on track! This is quite literally the language of how things become enlivened.
Feel how limitation feels awful when you feel like you “can’t” and how beautiful it feels when you move the limitation to the side and find a “way”. The universe sees limitation as a gift to creativity.
You are a creative genius, use this gift that you are to gaze at difficulty with a new attitude. Look at the hard things or the limitations straight in the face and breathe, in that moment say to yourself, “I am a creative genius. I am here to play, to create, and to discover.”
What do you want to love anyway? What do you want to pull through the cracks and crevices of your life? I support you. I’ll ride with you, as you make your way, giving endless birth to your love, to your creation.
Love:
