An airy fairy artsy fartsy post
For a several months I've been working on manifesting opportunities, recognizing them, taking them and having the absolute certainty that they will continue to flow in, their numbers infinite, like stars in the sky--somewhere where you can really see how many freakin stars are there. I'm getting better with it. I set that intention before each yoga practice and remind myself when my mind wanders or my body wobbles or falls out. I say it as prayer before I sleep. At first they were just words, because sadly, I had forgotten how to dream and fantasize--actually I still have trouble, which I find crazy, but it's my project now. I know I have recognized many many small and not so small synchronicities that have occurred, that have reinforced my values, steered me where I want to go. My relationships with friends are better, I'm more comfortable with my inner strength, I feel very physically healthy, etc. And now I want to flood myself with creativity--words, art, people, experiences. I want to consciously live creatively.
I met with my Sufi teacher and beloved friend last night. She says the shape of my face is even different, from letting go of what is now unnecessary and opening to who I really am. Hmm, nice to meet me. ;-)
About a month or so ago I decided I was going to Burning Man this year. (Have any of you gone?) I'm beyond excited and looking forward to it--I think it's one of things you just can't imagine fully you gotta go. I'm ready to experience the indescribable fantastic art, communities, people, fun, joy, heat, dust, cold, whatever. Let my free self out, have my life changed, open my mind and heart even more. I'm going with a friend from work, we have lots of time to plan. And Burning Man is about participation, not spectating which fits perfectly with this new self that has been emerging these last months.
I'm going to volunteer at Nimby which is a huge warehouse, converted for artists' work spaces and where apparently most of the huge works that end up on the playa at Black Rock City pass through. It's in Oakland. I connected through FB with the business manager , I asked how I could be involved, I wasn't necessarily arty, I was wordy and she got back to me right away which was awesome so I called her. I'm going to meet and mingle with them all tomorrow at their Thanksgiving get together. I'm stoked. She said there's loads of work to do there. Not only will this make the Burning Man experience a billion times richer, by knowing and working with these people, but obviously in many areas, there are going to be more openings and opportunities in this direction. Yay!!
