 I went to a wonderful workshop "Creative Myths & Monsters - The Artist's Way" presented by Julia Cameron and hosted by Kripalu last weekend. It seems like a year away already, it's unreal and crazy how time flies.
I don't have the time or inclination to share all the details and amazing breakthroughs that have resulted from that shared time and since, at least not at this moment. Suffice it to say that I highly recommend the book... and that's the understatement of the century. The tools provided by the process of awakening your creative self in The Artist's Way are beyond miraculous. There is also paradox in their simplicity... paradox as you know, is a requirement of mine. I will detail breakthroughs in coming posts but for now... a poem straight from my morning pages... Just A Little Diggin' Finding What is buried Ain't so hard Really - Just a little diggin' Just a little spade Just a little time and smilin'! You gotta push the dirt back from the hole. You gotta make space. Sort the weeds. Spread that dirt out a bit. Integrate it, what's bein' dug up! Who knows What you'll find. Not all the world Can tell you. Gifts - for sure. Shiny or smudgy Seems like buried treasures Seems like - maybe I buried them long ago for me to find...? Not all the world can tell you, but you'll know. Just a little diggin' Just a little spade Just a little time And smilin' ! Laurie McCauley 6-8-2018

A beautifully-wise piece of poetry. It reminds me that a very knowledgeable someone once wrote, "The examined life is not worth living." There's so much within us that is good and wise and creative but, like you say, You gotta push Comments are closed.
