I am walking and talking


I had a wonderful morning with the Grecian Goddess, who as, usual is filled with wisdom and musings on an early Sunday as we strode out on the foreshore of Melbourne. We talked about how much work it takes to stay connected, as everyday there are distractions, tests and low vibrations to tempt us and lure us back to the currents from which we broke free.

I said that I would rather live 10 years of a connected, authentic life than 80 years without a rudder, not knowing of my direction or purpose. It is easy to live an average life, being thrown around like washing in a machine, but what if you actually took control? What if you were the machine? I know I am getting all Matrix on you, but consider it for a moment? What if you, today, made the decision that you were going to manifest your dream life?

It is the decision that is the hardest part of that journey, once you make it then the Universe supports you and all manner of things start to come into your life to help you on that journey: people, jobs, mentors, lovers, children, passion and most of hope that it can be different.
Live with hope but not expectations, it can only be good for you, nothing bad can come from hope. Hope brings you sunny days, walks with Goddeses, hatching plans and great coffee.
A happy day to you all!

Blessed Friends

I have had a moment today when I realised that people who take risks or move outside the norm and live inspired lives are usually drawn and quartered for it, not actually in this somewhat more civilised day and age, but at the very least, gossiped about behind their backs at dinner parties.
Gandalf and I have always done our "own thing". We have never fitted into the box ticking society that we live in and as I have moved towards more eccentricities/authenticities [I don't want to label them], I have noticed that those whose companionship I seek and cherish also choose to live with their freak flag blowin' in the breeze.
In saying that, tonight I am off to the Astral Travel and Dream Course with my dear friend, the Blessed Seraph. We have known each other for 21 years, the longer our thread is weaved together the stronger it becomes. I have lost friends when I made changes in my life: weight, money, spoke my truth. I never lost Blessed, she has chanted my name and cheered me with gusto, cried with me and laughed at me. Aristotle said,
"What is a friend? A single soul dwelling in two bodies. "
At times we are like a single soul. She is a Scorpio, myself a Taurus, the opposite signs of each other, this constitutes a complex yet deep connection, we are each others ying and yang. We drive each other nuts and love each other like no other. When I asked her if she wanted to come with to the Astral Travel/Dream course, she didn't bat an eyelid, her weird-o-meter didn't even flicker. It takes a lot to freak out a Scorpio, I probably had a more of a chance of ruffling her feathers if I had claimed to have invented the blow job. "Not a chance," I would hear her say, "That had to be a Scorpio!"
