Foreboding Aside

“The only way we can make the most of our lives is to make the most of our moments. Today, wherever you are, decide to stay. We can know the gifts that lie in the present only if we stay in it long enough to receive them.”― Cleo Wade, Heart Talk: Poetic Wisdom for a Better Life

“it was time

so i said yes
i said yes to living
i said yes to loving
i said yes to being
my…
self
illuminated
and unafraid”

― Cleo Wade, Heart Talk Poetic Wisdom for a Better Life

Pandemic hangover.
New wars.
Economic struggles.
Incivility.
Loneliness.
Ongoing political noise with no action.
Many reasons for foreboding.

And yet, and yet.
Cynicism, despair, fear, complaining, judgment, division, anger and pining never changed the world.
Imagination, hope, inspiration, prayer, generosity, beauty, empathy, kindness, lightness, optimism, daring, effort, energy, compassion, understanding, action.
These are what change the world.
Foreboding aside and let’s carry on.
Moving from scarcity and stagnancy into abundance and action.
Peace. Joy. Delight. Resilience. Grit. Faith. Community. Connection. Light.
A resounding, reverberating, reignited YES to life and our ability to change it for the better.
And our responsibility to do so.

“Keep your inner world loving and hopeful and your outside world will begin to reflect exactly that.”― Cleo Wade, Heart Talk: Poetic Wisdom for a Better Life

Independence Day Early and Ongoing – LET IT GO!

“To find yourself, think for yourself.”
– Socrates

“Every human has four endowments – self-awareness, conscience, independent will and creative imagination. These give us the ultimate human freedom… The power to choose, to respond, to change.” – Stephen Covey

Too often the past screws us up. We remember and internalize a comment, an action or inaction, a pattern. We build a lifetime of misery based on bullshit someone threw out and passed on that creates a limiting belief and narrative that narrows the world. We carry this angst for years and decades. My response – HELL NO!

Life is short. You have talents, beauty and gifts to contribute. The world needs you so engage, act and participate. Let go and release all of the BS that doesn’t serve, foster and catapult you forward.

Purpose. Love. Joy. Contribution.

We are so much bigger than we allow. Let it go and become who you are meant to be. Enjoy the journey, it is a short one. No fear. No regrets. Yes to adventure! Yes to Yes.
