Times, they are a changing...

I don't exactly know how to express what's going on with me these days. It's a deeply rooted, fundamental, internal shifting that can't be explained to the outside world. A giving up, a giving in, a giving away...

It's joyful, so don't worry about me. If I disappear from view (from the physical world, not the virtual one), please don't take it personally either. I've been extremely introspective of late, but not in my usual self-critical way. There are deepening levels of understanding that are positively astounding. But they're personal, so more than likely incomprehensible to those who aren't looking inward at themselves.

After all these years, I'm finally beginning to understand my true passion. I have found my muses among those I read here on LJ... bodhifox, isis_lives, shadesong, rm and many many more. People I've never met in the flesh, but for whom I have developed a great deal of respect just from reading their words.

There are those that are meant to change the world with their lives, there are those that are meant to be changed by it. Neither is a more noble position. I find myself sobbing easily these days, not from despair, but from joy. A fundamental understanding, an appreciation of life that I have never experienced before, and a letting go of confining beliefs that rendered me unable to see the true beauty that surrounded me. My wish for all is that they become profoundly aware of who they are, and revel in it. There is no one who can love you more deeply than you can love yourself.

Observe. Choose. Create. Allow.

Four fundamental acts from which your life will flow. Simple? Yes. Easy? No.

Ciao for now.
