I was blown away by the question my dear friend George asked in regards to an organization we belong to. He asked, “What would you do if you inherited all the resources?” It was the question I have been looking for and didn’t know it. This is the question that allowed me to see what I had been truly missing, ie, ALL THE RESOURCES. I had been looking in my own backyard for things I could do or say to help but I had forgotten about ALL THE RESOURCES. I decided to do a resource inventory and was delighted in all that was already present to move ahead and create anew. ALL the resources in this case included a massive library of brilliant step by step teaching, deep and committed founders, willing and creative staff and past students, an online presence etc. But the really bonus goodies came flooding through me in the form of realizing my own resources. I love taking inventory like this yet constantly forget to do it.
ALL THE RESOURCES (in no particular order…….”There is no order of difficulties in miracles.”)
my humor; my husband; my beautiful daughters; our friends who know things I can only imagine; my bestie pals who cry and laugh with me; my mentors and coaches; my indefatigable desire for beauty, harmony & peace; God; God’s Voice; I can hear, speak and totally delight in God’s Voice of Love; my garage filled with history; my thoughts; the Universe (as in the ONEVerse we are all joined in singing); my home and office; electricity, running water; blow dryer (I’m sorry, but good hair is part of what I call a loving resource of God-so-loved-the-world he inspired the invention of blow driers); I can sort of find my way around a computer (with 3in1’s help of course); my body (in all its glory and hilariousness); of course I have come to really notice and enjoy breathing which is very cool because it turns out to be THE important resource here on earth; our corgies (Rugby is especially a great resource for practicing forgiveness of his constant need for attention, which is absolutely NOT a projection of my own need for attention, really it isn’t); Color; the infinite Qualities of Love that give me such great joy to feel, share, notice and celebrate; extending said Love to my thoughts; the 5 Steps to Hearing God’s Voice; food, water, champagne; the bank; all the amazing men and women who support my every breath from fighting fires, to working feverishly to form a government budget to those willing to fight for my right to sit here and dish (let’s not forget the Baristas, insurance agents; hairdressers, manicurists , financial advisors who make my world safe, leveraged, beautiful and caffeinated).
Ok, I have realized ALL THE RESOURCES could fill a page, a book, a world, a Universe. In fact they do.
Let’s hear it for the power of ALL THE RESOURCES we each have individually and collectively Thank you thank you , amen & thank you!
