Creative Commitment #46

"Advice"

These past few months have been full of changes for me, big changes, life changes. It's caused me to look at a lot of aspects of my life and really consider what I want in my life, what kind of energy I want... and this pertains to people, hobbies, projects, everything - MY LIFE! What do I want?

As a part of this journey, I've been rereading my journal I kept before, during, and after my Vision Quest... this quote: "Anything or anyone that doesn't bring you alive is too small for you" jumped off the page at me when I came across it again. That's some powerful shit. Especially with the way I've been looking at myself and my energy - how I want to approach the world - shining brightly and all that - I've come to the conclusion that I cannot be contained. I will not be contained. I am the font that overflows, not the ewer that holds. This is my nature, always has been, and it's only been because of the outside life that I've let that part of me fade. And even the slightest fading of true being is not okay.

So therefore, this advice is as much for me to remember as it is for me to share.
