Can one say that creativity is borne in boredom? Or is it borne deep within the nature of oneself? God?
I have not known boredom since I was a child, and yet, here I find myself decades later, wondering what I ought to do, now that I have nothing calling me. Or so it seems in the physical realm of time and space.
I have a sign in my room that reads,'Honour Your Calling', and I look at it daily and ask of myself, 'What is your Calling?'
I used to be a teacher, and barely had a precious moment to myself. I yearned to have time to ponder, and be creative, and quite obviously the Universe has fulfilled my order, as time is exactly what I have now. Today.
And hence the big question, What do you do, when you don't know what to do?
I wish I had an instant answer for this,but I can honestly say, I don't.
Not every day is like this. Some days I get called in to take someone's class, and other days I potter around the home, being 100% (or thereabout) up to date with the housework and motherly duties, so that I can at least tell my ego, that I did something worthwhile.
Yet, I want more, I want to be passionate about an aspect of life and use it to bring about joy or learning or something, but don't know how.
I have written down all the things I love to do,those things which fill me with passion; being a mother, reading, writing, swimming, walking, communing with nature, and within all these things, I feel that God's presence is within me. So, how do I take what I enjoy and use it to help others? Some things are easy enough, and others seem purely self oriented.
And yet, in my heart, I feel that I am being called to walk a Life of Faith.
A need to surrender.
So,can it be as simple as that? Surrender to God, and have faith that Divine Intervention will guide my every footstep, and place me exactly where I need to be, and provide voice to my every word.
It sounds right for me.
And, if I can be so bold as to say, if it is right for me, it is right for you too.
For each and every one of us is connected in Spirit. I may not know your name, I may not know what you look like, I may not hear your voice, but we share a special bond. Spirit.
Thank you for reading my thoughts, and sharing in my creativity for today.
With love,
C
