Recorded under the Flower Moon.

A reminder that something can be both delicate and powerful,temporary and meaningful,simple and profound.

Knowing the importance of this work,Knowing the potential it holds,Wanting the perfect words to arrive.

And knowing that clarity comes through the willingnessto face the uneaseand take the initiative to move.

In the awareness of what you don’t want.Comes the emergence of what you do.

It is the language of knowing,felt but hard to put into words.

An unease that holds your attention.An unease that desires distraction.But if you can face it and resist the temptation to turn away…

This is where the portal to awakening opens.

In the language of fairy tales, this is the moment before the wheel of fortune turns again.

The moment when something that demands your attention is seen for what it is, not what it looks like.

In The Frog Prince and Faithful Henry, a golden ball falls into deep water.

The gold ball—a shiny, valuable item, which represents the material world of the known, which is soon challenged by what is unknown.

It disappears into the deep watery depths of her emotions.

And to retrieve it, she must face an uncomfortable new reality.

The choice becomes:Comfort,or Courage.

Choosing comfort leads to growing agitation and unease.

And here the lesson begins.

The willingness to face the unease,the agitation that thrums through your being.

When you let your intuition guide you,when you take the initiative to trust your truth,and when you act in alignment with both…

something awakens.

In the story, the turning point arrives in a moment of raw truth.

This is the movement:

From unease and agitation,to intuition and initiative,to clarity and awakening.

Each phase has its place.Each one plays its role in your becoming.A seed of potential,A blossoming beginning,A flourishing reality.

A universal truth said three different ways.

Your mind is not a camera.It is a projector.

What you think you become.

Suffering, more often than not, comes from the inside not the outside.

What you perceive reality to be is shaped by the way you think.

Changing the way you think, and the words you use, changes your reality.

Let your intuition guide you here.Give yourself the gift of time with no distractions.

Notice what you notice.

This is how clarity blossoms.
