Absolutely, many of us carry our work in our heart…it means more than a 9-5 routine.

One of the things I’m building is creative fun I enjoy. I know you’ve all heard me talk about the ai platform I use to create on Night Cafe. I have such fun there seeing the challenge for the day and seeing what I can create for it.
A couple of days ago the challenge was Subtle emotions. I had no idea what to do with that one so I played around with the idea. This was what I created:
I titled it “An old woman looks in the mirror and sees the child she was and it brings back memories of who she was or could have been.”
I love entering these challenges because it’s fun. If I win I win if I don’t that’s ok too. After a certain length of time we get to vote on everyone’s creation.
To my utter and complete surprise although I didn’t come in first with this creation, I was 6th and that was more than ok with me. I received 374 likes and 56 wonderful comments. I know creating is more important than winning but hot damn winning is fun too! So yes I enjoyed the experience and wanted to share it with my circle friends.

Thank you Rick.
It’s beautiful yet scary at the same time because we humans ignore our dreams.

I got a bit emotional when I saw this on Facebook. This is a good reason to be in the NOW as much as possible with gratitude.
Does this bring up anything for anyone else?

Yes so many of us ignored our dreams or people talked us out of pursuing them.

It is so sad to think of the last time you did anything with someone you loved. Period. Last photo of our rabbit looking at me waiting to be pet. Last kiss. Last hug. Last time you talked on the phone. Last look or glance. Last sexual encounter. Last meal. Last time my grandmother saw my grandfather. Last time you said I Love You.
Also so grateful for the lasts. Grateful for the firsts. Grateful that I existed at all.

Thank you Dru for sharing this amazing acceptance speech with us here. @Rick talks about curiosity often and so did Viola. She was so powerful in this speech plus very funny. My eyes were wet as I watched. Now I want to read her book.

I’ve had so many last times, some I’m grateful for, others have been painful. One in particular is still a bit active but easing up. I am hoping when it’s my turn to fly free a special soul will be waiting to greet me. Hopefully I will also be able to take my last breath with gratitude that I wont be having anymore surgeries! I’ve had my last time on the beach and swimming in the ocean but so loved each time. However I am grateful for so much especially circle calls, workshops here, being able to build my cozy space and our collective friendships and support. And last but not least I’m so grateful for my angels.

This video popped up in my memories today on Facebook and it reminded me of our fears. The child thought something scary was following her when she saw her shadow. She was terrified. No wonder. How would she have known otherwise? It comes down to perception and what we believe.

Grandma got so tired of all the political raging that she climbed this tree and sat with the birds for a while. Then she started knitting sweaters for the squirrels. She feels better now.
