 I’ve never met many of my best friends. I’ve read them, as if all their words were letters meant for me. You have no idea who’s waiting for your work. Don’t leave them friendless.

 Some people are like magnetite: they don’t look unusual – don’t act unusual – until they are struck by lightning. (I mean metaphorically.) Like sickness, divorce, unemployment, your dog dies, you get abused. Frankly, there are a million ways to “get struck by lightning” and they all suck, except that some of them, in some people, turn on a kind of inner compass – nothing special to look at – but having a tendency to swing towards True North. In every ancient culture there were certain people to whom this was more likely to happen and they were called by different names in different cultures – medicine woman, shaman, mystic. I call then Wayfinders. Are you on this Team of Wayfinders? (I bet you are!)

Mini Mindfulness Break for December 28, 2018
 Act as if there is no spotlight on you, even if there is one. Say, do, and be what you would if no one else were looking. It will be scary at first, but if you persist, there will come that liberating moment when you’ll feel yourself sailing straight through your life’s most inhibiting barriers without even feeling a bump.

Mini Mindfulness Break for October 22, 2018
 Anyone who embraces the mender’s way of life must proceed through continual, infinite, breathtaking leaps of faith. Each time you face an unknown future with creativity rather than grasping at known quantities, you leap. Each time you dare to believe your art can sustain you financially, you leap. Each time you trust your tribe of menders, you leap. Each time you embrace a love that lays you bare in body, heart, or soul, you leap. And whenever you begin to disbelieve in yourself, your destiny, your ability to heal some part of the world, you must leap instead into the branches of magic.
