Chocolate – a metaphor for life

Posted on 20. Aug, 2010 by Susan Wright.

Today I asked my son, what should I write about? He said, “Chocolate.” So I asked, “What would you want to say about chocolate?” He said, “to give it, everyone can have chocolate at a party and eat chocolate with cake.” Sounds good to me! The funny thing is, I actually encourage people to eat [...]

What are you doing to keep life simple? Summer keeps it real easy; like a blanket laid out on the grass with a few items – a pen, notebook, and a deck of cards. As I write this blog post, my son and I are sitting under a huge tree and thankfully the shade and [...]

The dance between mundane and spirit

It’s been one of those days, lacking lustre to summon up any inspiring thought, emotion, or zeal. So my eyes wander around my environment and I stumble upon every item that needs cleaning, sorting, or basically is one of those things I’d rather not do – laundry, dishes…the mundane chores of life.  Yet, it is [...]

Awakening

Being conscious feels to me like, turning the light switch on, being fully connected to the power, and isn’t it too bad we’re not grateful for the light until something happens like a blackout. Shouldn’t we be more aware of these little miracles?  However, it’s my experience that in daily life it’s more of a [...]

What “happens” between us

Posted on 08. Jul, 2010 by Susan Wright.

It’s been an awesome two weeks and particularly the past two days, why so? Well because I experienced first hand what happens between two people when energy is exchanged, shared, and quite simply when an idea, concept, or vision is transformed. Everyday we have opportunities to co-create and yet we’re so unaware of the potential [...]

Turn on the power

Funny how my brand new washing machine’s power won’t turn on – a brilliant metaphor for my life right now. The circuitry is fine, but the connection is not there, apparently the machine needs “new parts” – I hope that’s not the case for me! We are requesting a new machine and this parallels my [...]

Land on the page – leading with creativity

Posted on 04. Jun, 2010 by Susan Wright.

I was struck with the urge to write this morning and followed that urge into my back sunroom. Often there’s a feeling I get that manifests the creative flow and frequently it gets dismissed due to time constraints, distractions or things I “should” be doing. That’s easy when I look at the state of my [...]

Creative tension – in transition

Posted on 20. May, 2010 by Susan Wright.

Living in discomfort, fuzziness with the odd moments of brilliance I acknowledge that I’m in a shift, a transitional period of my life. Just the other night it occurred to me that I went through this similar experience nine years ago; and yet, this time I’m moving from a entirely different place and context.
It’s an [...]

The point of vulnerability

Just when I thought it was okay, it wasn’t, just as I started to share, it got scary,  just as I let my guard down, it felt uncomfortable…how many of us feel a little less okay when we start to open our hearts and share what really matters? For those of us who like control [...]

When our voice gets lost

Posted on 22. Apr, 2010 by Susan Wright.

“Cat got your tongue?” my mother would say. Today I had two experiences of seeing and feeling the effects when our voice gets lost. As I picked up my son from the school bus, I learned that he and the other children were acting out and therefore got “pink slipped” – isn’t that something that [...]
