We are souls on a journey.

You are a soul on a journey – that I know about you. Where you are on your journey I do not know, and you do not know.

Your purpose is to walk on that path, using your heart as your navigator.

If you are a Spiritual Creative, you are probably conscious of being on a path – a spiritual path, a life path, or a path of self-discovery.

But being on a path does not necessarily mean that you have a clear idea of where that path is taking you. Sometimes all you know is . . . → Read More: The Path Unfolds Only When You Walk On It

When I created this painting – many years ago, now – it was my attempt to depict one image of the spiritual path. I called it The Quest or The Seeker.

You never know where you’ll be called to step next.

You may be just walking along, and suddenly find yourself out on a narrow ledge where you’ve never ventured before. Suddenly you’re in a new location with new vistas.

Lotus had never ventured onto the top of my air conditioner before, although it’s been . . . → Read More: Where Will Your Next Step Take You?

Are You a Spiritual Creative? Part II

Spiritual Creatives are insightful, intuitive, and imaginative, tender-hearted and passionate. We’re great at receiving inspired visions and getting excited about them. We are not always equally great at manifesting those visions. Taking assertive action and putting ourselves forward does not come easily to most of us.

In fact, we often shrink from the idea of . . . → Read More: Are You a Spiritual Creative? Part II

Many of the people I work with, play with, and are friends with are what I call “Spiritual Creatives.” This includes artists, healers, counselors, coaches, and transformational entrepreneurs of all kinds.

Sometimes it feels safer to hide, as Lotus well knows.

I know it too. I spent a lot of my life watching from the sidelines, afraid to jump in.

For instance, as a child I was afraid to jump in to games of jump rope. What if I tripped and fell on my face? What . . . → Read More: Are You Still Hiding?

Today is Valentine’s Day, and everywhere the talk is of love. But I would rather speak to whatever may light up your heart. For that is the only thing that really matters.

One thing I’ve discovered in the last few years is that if you want to grow, you have to learn to stretch.
