Today I leave my home to embark on a spiritual journey back Home. Out of Lynn Andrews Power deck, The Dream card chose me: "One day you will remember the Great Dream".
I am ready to remember, I am ready to bask in the warmth of the Love that I am, even more then I have.
Aloha!

Old friends, new habits
My friends just left my house yesterday and they were here visiting me from France and Ontario for a week. My parents arrived Friday and are still with us until Friday. It's been a full house, a joyful space and I feel lucky to have had dear friends and family with me, them getting to know Olivier and me, getting to discover more about them.
Right from the start, I shined the rays of my new found Sun. On the drive from the airport, my friends ask me what I have been up to, I said it all. Life Space, the Ideas Festival, the workshop and Huna. They couldn't believe so much as changed for me in such a short period of time. They were happy for me although they did not have the words to engage in conversations about what I do. They were a little surprised that an academic took such a creative and unpredictable turn.
Mid week, I found myself reverting to old habits when it comes to building rapport. I felt it was easier to discuss topics that we were all familiar with or had some knowledge of, which is fine, but I would find myself holding back on my true opinions because they would often generate a moment of silence, like the conversation had reach a dead end.
It became heavy for me after a few days and my energy felt drained. I became aware of what I was doing and became more mindful to stay connected and true. And I did. I am not sure what the consequences my openness and bluntness will have, but I trust that there is an intelligence at work in the rays I sent and even if I don't "know", I trust that I was a catalyst for change.
