Perspective.
This is the warning on every metaphor we can hold.
It’s almost countercultural to even speak about the slow, the steady, the time, the patience, and the persistence that is required in what we would cling to as beautiful.
What the world sees is this.
What really happens is this.
Most often to let the music play, you can’t simply just hit ‘play’, you have to let it unfold , till the soil, romance the instruments, and let time do its thing.
And it’s in this unfolding where true reward is found.
Dabbling doesn’t lead to mastery.
Enjoy the course, focus on the pins.
The scorecard knows no difference between a putt and a drive.
And of course…“Yep… Inside each and every one of us is one true authentic swing… Somethin’ we was born with… Somethin’ that’s ours and ours alone… Somethin’ that can’t be taught to ya or learned… Somethin’ that got to be remembered… Over time the world can, rob us of that swing… It get buried inside us under all our wouldas and couldas and shouldas… Some folk even forget what their swing was like…” The Legend of Bagger Vance Steven Pressfield

Benediction:
May you become childlike again. May you take back your crayons and fill your pockets with them…and in every moment of life give them their opportunity to do their thing. May you dip the paintbrush of your business and stroke the canvas with service. May you color your relationships with the crayons love, laughter, hope. May you find the courage and the bravery to to pull the back the veil and bring us the light, the hum, the soul, and the crayons you came here with to be fully used so that we may be changed by your art. When you light up. We light up.
Pause by the orchid. Listen to the bluebird sing. Be love.
…it warms the dirt for your relationships, moments, and art to grow and bloom.
And so when we say that the hardest thing one will ever do is become who they were originally whispered to be, what we are talking about is the beautiful, hard, and rewarding work of pulling back the veil that keeps the stage of the soul closed.
Because where there’s soul, there’s light.
Where there’s light there’s vision.
Where there’s vision there’s an experience.
Where there’s an experience there’s meaning.
Where there’s meaning there’s fulfillment.
Where there’s fulfillment there’s peace.
Where there’s peace there’s a garden in bloom.
And where there’s a garden in bloom, we’ve then come full circle and waltzed backed to how things should and were meant to be.
All because something – you – shined.
