๐ when i am ๐

engaged in creative action of the spirit, i am often surprised by the solutions that present themselves. i find myself surprised more often these days than ever before. my assumption is that 10.5 K days clean, i would be less surprised about the solutions that i may not even realize i require, much less desire. the notion that i needed to respect the cars and their drivers when i workout seem to come from nowhere yesterday. what i see today, however, is that it has been a long time coming and there were more than one “sign” that i need to start to look at my part and seek a different way to operate. that is part of living life creatively.
this morning, part of my creative living was to change up my plans and come home and write this before heading over to Boulder for a meeting. there was no pressure and the idea did not even strike me before i was finishing up coffee with one of the men who call me their sponsor. changing my plans is not something i do with any sort of ease. in general there is angst, indecision and a whole lot of pros and cons internal conversation. the fact that i just acted, is sort of a moral victory, i trusted my intuition instead of arguing alternatives.
this whole notion of living life creatively is not new to me, although on some days it feels like it just might be. just for today, i will get my ass in gear and over to Boulder, enjoy my deep tissue massage, clean my car, and enjoy a night off from service. i can allow that plan to change, as i see today, i do not have to write anything in stone.
