When you shine…

…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.

LTMP Podcast #2: Presence

Howdy.

In this week’s podcast we venture into a discussion on presence, being in and a part of your moments, participating in and along with spring’s bloom, and much much more.

Also, the podcast is now officially in iTunes and you can subscribe by clicking here.

Godspeed in your music making and may we all continue to grow our capacities so that we can hold more of the next experience.

Show notes:

Quote: As we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others. Marianne Williamson

Quote (didn’t make it into the podcast): When you wash your hands, when you make a cup of coffee, when you’re waiting on the elevator – instead of indulging in thinking, these are all opportunities for being there as a still, alert presence. Elkhart Tolle

Benediction:
May you be here.
May you be in and with the questions of your children.
May you be in and with the needs of those you serve.
May you be in and with the moments of those that God has given you to experience this place with.
May your eye catch and hold the explosions of the bloom in spring.
And May your soul find the courage to listen and answer the flower’s question, ‘are you in bloom?’

Conviction.

A movement is always unpopular before it’s popular.

You aren’t given conviction for the sake of popularity.

It is given to move us from dark to light, from chaos to order, and from noise to music.

So you’re convicted?

Are things moving towards light, order, and music?

If so, popularity will be the least of your concerns.

The Choice

There are many, but THE CHOICE that will predict the experience that is heard, felt, and seen and the story that unfolds with you and your music will you be whether you choose to be an artist or whether you choose karaoke.

Here, this is free. Did you know that karaoke is two Japanese words put together: empty (kara) and oke (orchestra)?

You can be an empty orchestra or a full symphony.

Your choice.

And this choice makes ALL the DIFFERENCE in your world and the world of others.
