Welcome to the Meadow
I had a transformative experience this summer where I came face to face with my authentic self….and, it turns out, she’s a lot like my dog, Bella. She’s yappy and excited and full of life. But, like Bella, she can be annoying because she’s not a particularly calm and graceful sort of person. In fact, she can really be “too much.” Now, to those of you that know me, this is probably not a shock, but it WAS a surprise to me. I thought that if I meditated and prayed enough, I would discover my authentic self and she would be elegant, calm, and tall. (For some reason, she’s tall.) Instead, it’s just me. Goofy, silly, completely uncool, but high on life, with a heart 10 sizes too big, wanting to love the entire world.
After my initial mortification, I sorta came to peace with who I am. And I’m finding that the more I’m me, the more I’m able to love others as they are, without expecting them to be elegant or all-together (or tall).
This newsletter will be sporadic, uncool, a bit awkward, but filled with love and blessings. Just like me :-) My goal is that somehow this turns into a community where we all help each other be more fully ourselves, oriented towards that light that radiates goodness over the world.
Thanks for being here.
If you know of anyone who might want to visit the Meadow, it would make me so happy if you would invite them to join us.
