openness ~ May 15, 2002 - 10:42 p.m. I'm just so grateful... everything is shifting, changing, unfolding. it's a good place to be. I rediscovered the openness of my heart yesterday, while I was working in the kitchen. I was making zucchini for dinner, and I just opened my heart and poured my love into that food. so wonderful to start feeling so open again. and you know? the zucchini was delicious. people seem to be talking to me more, opening up to me more too... and I'm not sure if that's because I'm in a more open space, or because I've just signed on for another six weeks-- so they know I'm going to be here for a while. today I was in the bathroom at the conference center, and there was a middle-aged woman a couple of sinks down from me. I looked in the mirror and noticed how her silver hair was cut-- short and sassy. I said what a cute haircut-- it really suits you. which is not the kind of thing I often say. and her energy just went through the roof. she was so delighted to hear it. she told me how she'd just gotten that haircut, and she's never had it short like that before, and none of her friends have seen it yet, and she was feeling a little nervous, and she was just so glad that I said that. and it felt so good. there are times when I know exactly the right thing to say to someone, without even knowing that I know it. when that happens, I know I'm in the energy flow, and living from my heart. it's been a while... and oh, it feels so good to be back in this space. may I continue to open, may I continue to flow with the currents of energy and the cycles of life. may I live always from the heart, and may I be turned always towards the light.
