What brings you more alive?


People say that we’re
searching for the meaning of life.
I don’t think that’s it at all.
I think that what we’re seeking
is an experience of being alive.
~ Joseph Campbell





It’s the first week of spring.

Ah . . . the breathing space I feel just typing that sentence.

The older I get, the more I love spring. There’s something gloriously hopeful about the birthing of another year of nature’s bounty. Bright new buds, brilliant yellow daffodils, softer air, longer days. Such possibilities fill the air . . .

It’s the perfect time to open to our own brilliance.

Find some quiet space to sit with your journal this week and make a list of anything and anyone that brings you more alive.

Then answer the following, “How much time do I spend with these people?” “How many hours each week do I do the things that I love?”

And then ask yourself, “What’s keeping me from being more alive?”


Warmest spring wishes,

Karen
