Today's prompt for Jamie Ridler's Wishcasting Wednesday is: What do you wish to say yes to?
Peculiar things, these wishes, my ego encourages me to play small. Keep it safe.
'Achievable', it whispers. Don't wish too grand cause people might point and laugh at your gall, and say I told you so when it doesn't come true.
Thanks, ego for trying to keep me free from harm, I really appreciate the gesture. However, just for today, I am going to make-believe that I am brave, fierce & confident and let my spirit take the lead.
- I wish to say yes to opportunities that push me past the fear of not being good enough.
- I wish to say yes to possibilities that I can't even imagine for myself that the universe has in store.
As I sit here wanting to express myself, connect & contribute something with this blog I'm strangely aware of how I am a dichotomy of sorts. One part of me aches to do it correctly, to follow the rules & get it right in the proper order, while this other part of me wants to extend the middle finger to the rules and just march to the beat of my own distracted-but-amused drummer.
I have started about 6 posts, all on various topics and they lie in wait in my drafts folder, waiting for the clarity to express myself authentically & so that I can do things in the right order, no putting the cart before the horse so to speak. But time moves really fast in the blog world, and writing about what I learned in 2010 already seems passé, especially since I haven't really sat down to ponder what those lessons have been yet.
