One of my students/friends painted these for me.
They sit on my desk and are the perfect visual expression
of what is happening in my life.
Thank you, Siena!
Last year, in my Personal Development Class, we talked about being hot air balloons and
what makes it difficult to actually lift off into the beautiful horizon of our destiny.
We talked about how
people around us, sometimes those closest to us, won't know what to do with us if or when
we start to ascend.
It's often difficult for those who like the stability of the ground
to allow those who are ready to fly
to be released to do so.
If you see someone in your world making changes,
wanting to brave the unknown to discover their place in the world,
their part in impacting this beautiful planet with their gifts and creativity,
I would ask you to be one who helps cut the sandbags free,
empowering your loved one to soar, to become that
colorful, inspiring hot air balloon rising into the morning mist at sunrise.
If you don't consciously choose to help cut the sandbags free,
you may unknowingly become the sandbag that keeps
the one you love from truly becoming all they
are created to become.
Fly, my friends. It's thrillingly, breathtakingly, life awakening.
The world needs you to be ALIVE.
I really love this. We can help cut the ties to the sandbags of someone's dream or become one of them.
ReplyDeleteWhat a powerful analogy the sandbags are. It can be he hard to feel you are being left behind when someone is ascending. Thank you.
