Secret Dream
A secret dream had I..... being an artist. We are all artists as we create the dance of our daily life. BUT I was not willing to tell my secret dream of being an artist. I started slowly and gently, saying it to myself, then to a few trusted friends. My most trusted friends encouraged me, actually suggested that I dare go public with my secret dream.

Last year I added a page to my website, www.numinousity.net  revealing my secret.
A small dream in the large scheme of things but a "big for me dream." I don't need to show in a museum, just somewhere. I don't need to make a living, simply sell something to pay for art supplies and studio rent. This year, 2012, a fire year, I’m giving my dream a website of its own.

My experience: secret dream revealed + actions in the service of the dream = joy, high excitement, bliss. Also my experience; secret dream revealed + actions in the service of the dream = fear and nausea. So dear friends, I encourage you to gather your support system, both in this world and the invisible world and allow them to hold you. I encourage you, in this Fire year of 2012, to allow your heart’s fire to fuel your secret dreams. Tend them, warm them.

In the words of two of my favorites:

Follow your Bliss.

Ring the bells that still can ring. Forget your perfect offering. There is a crack, a crack in everything, that's how the light gets in.
