stories for letting go and letting come (24)

14 while waiting for perfect

There’ll be something which captures your attention and intention more than anything else.  Around this lies the possibility of bringing your creativity and generosity in the form of beauty and goodness.

Yesterday, I met with two others to plan something which will provide a space for people to find their “voices.”  Towards this, two of us were helping the other to imagine what that something could be, and it felt like Richard Rohr’s description of ‘authentic soul friends … Guiding the soul across all the scary borders.’*

If you’re pursuing the right things for you at the right time, for the right reasons with the right spirit, then you’re you’ll be able to move adeptly towards the future – such poise is important because the future is tricky.  So here are a number of future-orientated skills to develop – and better together:

Anticipation, opening us to more, often whispers from the future
Reflection, allowing us to think deeply about what we’re discovering
Imagination, making it possible to see future possibilities
Synchronisation, connecting deeply with what is possible
Design, playing with possibilities sooner rather than later.
Creation, shaping something of beauty and goodness which responds to what was first anticipated.
