Standing Out from the Crowd


What is it that makes you different from anyone else?  Is it your way of walking, your eyes, your voice?  Are you really good at something that others find to be difficult?  

Most of us would find it hard to stand on one leg for any length of time.  Yet for the flamingo, that's just the way it is.  Bending and turning, nodding and swooping of necks, are so easy while in this position.

What seems hard to do at first may become easy with practice.
Your life and your way of being are not like others, in the details, the things that make you who you are.  The experiences you have are a source of insight and of strength for you as you create your life from day to day. You are an expert at doing what makes your life work. 

That expertise wants to grow, and to help you grow.   Your message is important. You know things that nobody else knows!  That knowing deserves to be expressed, so the world can learn the things you have learned. 

My work here on the land is an example of this.  As I watch the things I planted grow into maturity, and outgrow what I thought was possible, it has been a great lesson in persevering, and in letting go of my own ideas of what can happen.  Nature creates with astonishing vigor!  Somewhere along the way I became an expert at mountain living, by trial and error, by practice, by use of my imagination.  And the landscape now attracts many visitors who add to the depth of the experience in so many ways.  And the mountains continue to give me lessons in adaptation, in beauty, in listening.

What is your expertise?  Have you ever thought of writing about it?  Picking up a paint brush?  Playing some music?  Let's make it happen!  It may seem hard to start, or to begin again if you have a gap in time to bridge. What would it be like if it was easy?  You are a naturally creative being, with so many things to offer.
This is the time! Get the flow going!  Let's talk about what you want to express, and what that expression can accomplish.

Stand out from the crowd!
