Living local

I was inspired by a presentation at the Centre for Social Innovation (CSI) today when the notion of discovering our place among a global world brought to mind the significance of local connection. As our connectivity broadens and disperses; it seems just as necessary to find roots in our own community. Over the past few [...]

If life is a stage, how will you play?

Posted on 21. Oct, 2010 by Susan Wright.

If life is a stage, then this week was a jumbled mess of obstacles in which I became the juggler, raging mother, and damsel in distress – none of which made for a star performance.  Contrary to a master juggler who has strong focus, timing and rhythm, I had little of that.  Raging Mother, well [...]

Are you really free?

Freedom is something I truly value; however, it was once said to me, “are we ever truly free?” Gosh that made me step back and wonder. I always viewed freedom as a feeling, a way of being, an experience of choice and liberation. As I move along this path of life there are many times [...]

The birthday hangover – take action

Yesterday I turned a page and started another chapter in my life, so why don’t I feel like I’ve started yet? I would rather linger in the retrospective, eat cake, and dream about my dreams – oh, that’s where I’m caught. I’m stuck in the dreaming, the playing with ideas and the fun that comes [...]

September 2010 Dear Friends and Clients: I’m having a nostalgic feeling as I sit down to write this. It’s been several years since I wrote my first September newsletter and it’s with great gratitude that I can land on the page again in a familiar sort of way although the method has changed.

Chocolate – a metaphor for life

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

Posted on 30. Jul, 2010 by Susan Wright.

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 [...]
