That's why your feet hurt...

Someone once told me that at any given time the best I could do would be to stop kidding myself...then laughed, ironically. It's not uncommon in my experience for a friend to give me profound advice in a joking manner. But come on, stop kidding yourself, ha ha. When I thought about it I realized that very often, that's how life is.
There's an African proverb that describes the creation of the universe from itself as beginning with a "rebounding force." The back and forth movement that is present in the creation of all things. Even our thoughts may waiver on a point of focus. We may see the end result and begin to flesh out the details of what we are creating. But as the form takes shape in our mind capturing the texture of each quality we are expressing in the creation of this "thing" feels sometimes like trying to get in on double-dutch. We may even get hit in the head with one or both of the ropes before we finally get it together. And as is true with double-dutching the more you practice the better you become.
Think about it(ha ha), everyday I look at a vision board with images that I designed to provoke and help to maintain the feeling of having my BIG dream fulfilled. It covers several areas of life: romance, community, finances, work, image and so forth. So every morning I leave the house living my dream...then life happens. By three in the afternoon my dream may be deferred quite a bit. However, I have noticed my mornings are gaining increased momentum. I'm hanging out in my dream longer and longer and it is becoming clearer and clearer. And let me clarify, I don't spend my time imagining I'm somewhere else and daydreaming. Again, I am operating in full possession of the qualities that I want to express as a part of my BIG dream. That part, of course, being me. I am living from my desire fulfilled. So I am even more present to what is, with the understanding that it is an essential part of what needs to occur to get me to my dream. But first I really did stop kidding myself. I have learned is how to recognize the "not quite my dream" come true, and say "No, thank you." Choosing the real me and my actual desire everyday.
If God really is everywhere, and there is no where that God is not. And God is substance taking the perfect form for my life then why compromise?
