Explore with a piece of paper…it will change your life

If we want to free ourselves to open up, let go and allow ourselves to flourish from our soul then grab a large piece of paper and whatever pens, pencils, crayons, paints, or other stuff like that lying around and just start to make a mark on the paper.

Do not think it, feel it. Do not think about an outcome, do not worry about what it looks like. We instinctively know what to put on the paper when we align with our feelings and not with our thoughts.

When we have got going then go to what we enjoy and like on the paper and explore more of that. There are no art police looking in, there is no one judging, only ourselves if we go into our thoughts. Just let go and create what you feel.

Then we can apply this process to anything in life…music, writing, talking, exercise, work, cooking, and the choices we make.

We are the captain of our ship, we decide where it sails, we are the creator of our choices, we are the creativity of our lives…we hold back because of our fears and conditioning. When we just do what we feel in this moment and let go, who knows where our choices will take us?

What if…?

What if we choose to ask a question first instead of telling someone what we think?

What if we choose to understand them first?

What if we helped them to be seen first?

What if we choose to say to ourselves that I don’t know what they are feeling or thinking?

What if we choose to listen without preparing our answer?

What if we didn’t respond from our point of view?

What if we accepted that their feelings were theirs and that we wouldn’t question that?

What if we were taught to be curious and to know how to listen?

What if we knew how to help others to be seen?

Maybe we could choose to try.

My guess is we would learn to listen, speak and act from our hearts. That love would replace fear and we would all become more connected.
