"If
one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavours
to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success
unexpected in the common hours."
Thoreau
There
is an intuitive place where thinking and feeling find one another and
form a moment of unexpected focus. No words can match this "felt sense..."
Instead, what you're left with is a vision........a picture or a symbol
representing a personal dream or an obstacle in the way of fulfilling
that dream. And if you were to take that initial vision a few steps
beyond, it just may lead you to a vista beyond the line in the
horizon.........to a place where the panoramic view is unlimited.
Our
thoughts always seem to have boundaries........or perhaps it is just
our inhibitions getting in the way of broadening the possibility of
where our imagination can take us. We continue to step in a
patterned mode, continuously repeating the same moves, the same actions
even if we languish in a spiral going nowhere. Why? Because its
comfortable. We are comfort seekers rather than wilderness seekers.
Despite our awareness of what our needs are, or what our dreams look
like, we rest easy within the confines of our bordered thinking....Jesus said......."As you think, so ye shall be............"
Hidden potential.......what is yours? What are the changes and challenges which block you from responding to your gifts? What are you willing to do in order to reveal your hidden potential...in order to dream big? What do you need to nurture in order to move into the direction of what it is you want? How do we feed our thoughts with the passion we so often withold?
When was the last time you allowed your thinking to blend with your feelings to stretch yourself beyond the boundaries you have purposefully set up to protect yourself from escaping the tame and embracing the wild side? When we allow ourselves to focus on this type of travel, we experience the "felt sensing" moment where wisdom taps us on the temple.... where we transform into a spiritual being having a human experience.
Transformation......such a loaded word isn't it? I used to think it was an stand alone event which happened to some people connected to their religion and church. What i realize now is that transformation is an evolutionary process which may or may not be formalized through organized religion. It's a lifelong unfurling of personal growth and not a true destination endpoint. It is the type of journey which allows one to move beyond the boundaries of our defined self, of our form to advance beyond what we already know to meet, as Thoreau describes...."a success unexpected in common hours."
Eternal, infinite and life changing...this is what transformation is all about. If you are willing to be open to going beyond the original field of dreams and focusing on the place inside where the merging happens, you just never know where your intuitive nature will lead you....to a place of discomfort. To a place where uncertainty feels like your life undressed. To a place where the words are few but the dreams are open ended.....
