Hi Veronique, I just read that you have enough ideas for five lives, which is pretty awesome by the way. So, I want to share something with you that fed my creative spirit knowing that your Muse will probably like it, too.

YOUR LIFE IS YOUR CANVAS


Your life is your canvas.

You are your own greatest creation.

Don't you remember

how when you were little

you knew in your bones

you would be able to do anything?

Anything that was really yours to do?

This is our chance, right now.

To move out of the place

of victim and into the place

of creating our life as if

we could do anything with it.

I know you feel trapped sometimes

I know you don't see the way through

I know the mountain is so big

that needs moving.

But I also know this...

Our life is our art.

You are art.

You are the one with the brush

and the one with the colors.

Your emotional landscape

is the place to create your life from.

This isn't about it being

ALL GOOD

and there being no mistakes.

This is about continuing to

create even when you feel

like you are on fire or

underwater with no way to

catch a breath.

This is about opening your

heart to love one more time.

About risking being hurt,

again.

About moving the cage of

the body off and dancing

your hips back to life.

About moving the grimace

of your mouth away and kissing

kissing the very air in front of you.

This is about an inquiry

into how to be in love with anything

and anyone even when you feel

so all alone. I know you feel so all alone

some days. So do I.

But there is one thing I know for sure,

that you are with me and I am with you.

The red thread of connection

between is as strong as ever and if you

close your eyes you will see

I am your companion for the journey.

Fellow seeker on the path of life

looking to make art out of the past

and make the future into our own

greatest creation.

I once thought, not so long ago

that the best of my life was behind me.

I now know that is a lie I told myself.

It is my decision for the best of life

to be in front of me.

Will you choose with me?

Right now will you CHOOSE?

See my hand extended

reaching for you.

We can do this together.

We can open to love again.

Open to light again.

You don't have to get rid of your

fear first, or your pain.

There is a divine spark

at the end of God's finger

lighting the pilot light of your

heart right now.

I see itI! I see it!

Come with me...

Come with me...

Come with me...

to the other side of the

scars of the heart.

Come with me

and together we will

paint our new legends

over cups of steaming

tea and use as much

gold paint as we feel

we need to make the world

glow again.
