What if it turns out better than you imagined?
My dreams have been selective the last 15 years. This year so many of those dreams have come true that I’m ending 2024 feeling vulnerable AF.
The dark alley soothsayers warned that my son was headed down a path where charlatans (adult and child) were trying to take his power – I put all my energy into stopping that from happening and then miraculously, dark turned to light. Instead of lions, and tigers, and bears, oh my, it weighed in like puppies, and horses, and boys, hell yeah. All O.K. now at the O.K. Corral!
When I figured out what was going on at the 100 Men Hall, I had one dream, to protect it in perpetuity. To not let it fall into the hands of venal developers or the indifferent desks of bureaucrats. The Hall ends 2024 endowed and the dream is to build into sustainability and longevity. Ring the bells!
How vulnerable are you when real life turns out as good or better than you dreamed? I used to clutch to the laundry list of bad things that happened as a talisman against more bad things. One day, the list started getting heavy to carry around. In its place, magic, dreams, miracles. Why not?
The artist’s way shows that you start with Why is This Happening To Me? Then you move to, hold up, this is happening for me! Take a closer look, and you believe this is happening by me. Graduation day comes when you realize this is happening through me.
We are out here receiving miracles y’all – pay attention!
My friend Susie Bruce sent me this image – it’s perfect.

I can relate – like who knew – we just had to wade out 2024 and receive the gift. My word for 2025 is “overflow”. What’s interesting is this is a word I never use. In fact I way over use the word “overwhelmed”. A habit I been made aware of and set the intention not to use “overwhelmed”. So how graces is it to be given the word “overflow” – I am more than enough. Happy New Year.

Right?!? – you and I have lived in a world of overwhelm – and that means we have taken on so much because we felt not good enough. I am more than enough and what I do not need to pick up will keep flowing past me, through me. Happy New Year to you my friend. Who knew that getting to this age would bring so much goodness?
