Gone Wishing
In life, in our lives, everything is connected, everything has a meaning, has a significance, a place, a relationship.
Find where you fit. Find your highest calling, your most detailed and delightful passion, and get busy creating the masterpiece of your life.
No one will do it for you. The Calvary is not coming. You are the leader, the captain, the person in charge of your health, your wealth, but more than that…you are in charge of your bliss.
From a speech by Mandela, “Who are you to play it safe,” to stay in the shadows, to run over the same ground, to cower from the opportunities that are raising their beautiful heads? Who are you to stay put, to play inside the hopscotch lines, in a corner, alone on the edge of a playground peering out of the chain link fence at the miraculous world going on?
This is the day to shine, to refine the realities, to find the stride of who you are, what you are, why you are, when you are…and blend it all into a result, a seeing, a creation and a mystical manifestation of what you really want to see in appear, come clear and get into gear to conjure up an amazing life.
Believe in all things possible. Believe in the improbably. Believe in the impossible yesterday that is now showing up today (like video cell phones from Star Trek in the 1960’s) because you finally decided to take a stand against the mediocre and the average and the too easily accepted norms that have been ingrained in society, in your own mind, in your strolling and toying brand of too softly thinking and wishing.
I once saw a sign on the front door of a retail store, actually a Nepalese gift shop in Boulder, and it simply said: “Gone wishing.”
When is the last time you went wishing, wished for something, wished with all your might, with no doubt in your focused mind, with a pure and unfettered heart, and then, that wish came true?
Wishes can come true, if you have the passion and the belief and the determination to help them grow, be born, ride the magic carpet ride all the way to Baghdad and back.
Go wish. Go believe. Go live. Go get excited. Go make it happen. Be so enthusiastic people think you are on something, when maybe you are just on to something…like a successful adventure that has finally just begun.
Ride the rollercoaster all the way to the end. Take a trip to the far reaches of your vivid imagination that creates whatever you believe in…if you will not let in contrary or doubting ideas or feelings about your wish coming true.
Do it now. Tomorrow is not a real day. This afternoon is coming soon. Your destiny is in your hands.
Be of good cheer, good humor and a person who will not give up on a dream, who will believe so hard that this dream cannot do anything else but burst into the material world, a child born, and idea that has come of age, an ideal and need and wish that’s time has come.
You find your stride and get striding. Get going. Make it happen and whistle as you fly from a single idea…to a great notion…to a finally potion…to who you really are…connected to the stars.
