I’d even begun. Saturday night. And then, Breaking News.
Cue flashback to preacher days. All prepared for Sunday. Five index cards waiting on the table by the bed, just in case a new thought happened along. Then, news… the big kind.
And this day, which was planned around soup and Solstice Celebrations, turned into nobody knows what’s next news.
For this moment, I’m going with the best thing I’ve got. A thing that actually happened on Friday night. I’d been doing a lot of planning for all the big things coming up. Especially the celebration.
Frankly, I had lots on my mind and I was feeing a bit anxious. My calendar is overflowing from now until the first week in August. Overflowing with awesome, welcome things which somehow tend to bring busy and unknown along! Hence, my anxiety. Frankly, not knowing is hard for me!
Then, I had a thought! A thought which led to action! I went out to the studio and came back with both hands full of my wisdom cards-in-progress. There are production challenges but, I reasoned, the wisdom and the #Filters are there and they work.
So, I pulled myself a card, passing them all through my hands, eyes closed, until one chose me.
Mine don’t have numbers like some of the more famous ones do. And yes, the photo above is of the one I chose.
If you had it in your hand and flipped it over, you’d see this:

I laughed when I read it. You see, some of those same folks who raised me right would not be overjoyed with the cards. (Or the notion of a Solstice Celebration!)
And then, I cried. Cried because it worked. Especially, this part…
…To encourage making conscious choices… about beliefs, on the road to the place where YOU are called! The world needs you!
And yes, I’d be delighted for you to claim this message, too!
So I re-claimed some of my Intentions. One of those is to keep being open to learning new things. Another is my commitment to the notion that I get to choose!!!
This last, by the way, is where the whole metamodern thing comes in, but that’s going to need to wait for another day.
And there will be soup.
For now, though, I’d love for you to witness one of my commitments about next right things:
I am present to choosing these journeys as safe places to continue to unfold… to become more ME, even in the context of this time!
If that sounds good to you… if you feel your inner wisdom whispering… then click here for all the info! There’s still time to join in the adventure known as #Filters! This might be just the right time!
ps… the art for the Creators card was part of an Intentional Creativity® journey called #Animystica. It found a home, and a very important job in my children’s book, A Creation Poem… Daphne & I would Love for you to check it out!
