Remembrance

I have entered my sanctuary my sacred space. Breathed in my Writer’s prayer and I am ready. Amazing!  I spent time last week working on a prayer and entering practice which is helping me feel as though I  am sitting in a cozy thatched cottage in Cornwall and that I am accompanied by so many helpers sitting in my sanctuary with me.

Time to begin.

This week I have journeyed to the world of my book and sat with a couple of the characters asking them to tell me about themselves and their world. As I sat with the characters who showed up. I kept a few questions in my mind.

Why are you living the life you are living?

What makes you important to this world?

Why would I want to write about you and your part in this world?

This journey was supported by some work I did in my Life Mission II manual which helped me explore the who I would need to become to do what I have come here to do and my Life Mission III manual which helps me live my life sacredly, beautifully and artfully.

These characters and I are on a similar journey. Each one of the characters are seeking to remember what they have come to do, really come to do, and finding within themselves all that is needed to do this. This is the hero’s journey. The hero’s cry: help me remember the higher and deeper reasons of what I need to remember about who I truly am so I may do what I really have come to do.

This has been the theme of my week.

Remember when I talked about following the threads?

So! Keeping the emerging theme in mind. Then I had a conversation with one of my teachers and she spoke about doing the thing in our lives that we have come to do even if we are the only one who understands the deep inner knowing that this is living our life mission.

For the characters in my book this is exactly what they have to do; this living their life mission will be what maintains the balance of this world, keeps this world alive.  Each life on this imaginary world I am creating intersects with all the other lives even if the characters never meet. Each choice will affect the others some way, and will also affect the balance of the world.

All of this went with me as I spent time with a couple of the characters, going inside and meeting them in their imaginary world. What I noticed was more details began to emerge. Beliefs and ways of being important to them, history, secrets that would become essential to reveal, momentary meetings that would become pivotal points in the story all began to emerge from listening and seeing them in the landscape of their world.

Wow: ideas emerged in vivid, beautiful ways.

I also began to notice and expect that each time I did a The Way of the Heart Integration™ I was getting insights, some more details of a character  I have already created or a new character that would need to play some part in this world. I have started drawing boxes around my insights and writing in different coloured ink: INSIGHT.  Being willing to be curious and ask questions  about all aspects of this world is unearthing the details. Even the land/earth has a life mission.  I am beginning to understand  and trust the insights. Even if I do not write that piece of information in the book it will add to the flavour and tapestry of the world through resonance. Through my deeper understanding of this character, world and myself as the writer.

I am being asked to become more a part of this world. To remember who I am and what is important to me. Seeing the developing and unfolding of the lives on my imaginary world is asking me where I need to make different choices. To kindly ask myself where does it seem there are contradictions in my life. The places where what I say I believe and what I am actually manifesting intersect. Creating this world of strange characters is showing me about balance and how I affect my world seen and unseen with my choices.

So the hero’s cry is really my cry, my call to the Universe:

Help me remember the higher and deeper reasons of what I need to remember about who I truly am so I may do what I really have come to do artfully, sacredly and beautifully.

See you all next week.

Thanks for walking with me.
