"What do you want"?

I think it is safe to assume there has to be an "art" to wanting something.  One must sit down and step by step make a decision, see what it takes, review options, do the research...and so on.  But how do you get to the place to want it.  Did you see it, did someone else have it, does it fit your needs, is it in your budget, will it help someone else...again, and so on.  Well...my want is a "New Beginning...dipped in Purpose"  Not like I want to start over, I would not give up my journey for nothing in this world but I would like a new story and to get unstuck in my old one.  Maybe even a new book jacket, one that has the same title but when you look at the book cover you get a different vision of the story.  Maybe the new intro would start like...as I look back over my years I now know what I can do, what I can control and what I can be...also another so on.  All this is very general but something to ponder...I'm just saying. 

This brings me back to my love for my crafts.  Last month I sold my much needed therapy session...my spinning wheel "Daisy"  she went to a great home and the new spinner is embracing the wheel, this makes me so happy.  I felt the need to lighten my load and maybe try something new.  I realized I love spinning, not the wheel.  So I am softly looking around for a replacement because that activity offered much peace and maybe I had to free up my time so I can focus on other things that required my attention.  (too much peace!)  Nonetheless, I purchased a much "wanted" spindle and when I received the package I was so excited, took it out to spin and thought I'm so excited, so I can't spin well with it, then I tried again and still no real satisfaction and then again.  My want was disappointing!!  So instead of allowing this beautiful item to just sit and since I love to spin I decided to release and let go.  What do I want?...to spin, simple-well maybe.

CLARITY

I think there comes a point when the "A ha" moment is so loud that you can't even think to turn down the volume. The past few weeks have been full of those moments - when I wake up in the morning, walking around during the day and before I turn down to sleep at night. People I meet, people I don't meet and just total random encounters. As I seek peace in these moments, I also seek firmness in my steps and joy in my heart, which finally provides clarity for my soul.

Something to share from the "Purpose Driven Life" a driver in my life...
