Every Man Has a Right to Decide His Own Destiny

I have learned a real lesson in letting go of people and things that are holding me back from making my visions come true. I am so glad I can really see this as a big part of my life. I have watched people weave in and out of my life, but never has it been so clear to see that each person you invite into your life plays a big part in how it progresses. Of course your own mind is most powerful, however having someone in your life who is in constant fear or is not supportive of your goals and dreams will ultimately pull you away from your visions, it is the law of physics. As I took a moment today to be present I realized how rapidly things are changing for me, I see my life shifting before my very eyes and am taking in every moment as things unravel. Last night Molly and Aaron came to the retreat to photograph my artwork that has finally come full circle. The work I have put into this project for about 7 months has come alive and we celebrated together, I love you both. My first sample I sent out today via National Messenger to Shanan at her job in Anaheim with two bottles of wine in it! Giving gifts to other's (especially one's you have made) is probably one of the best feelings possible. Last night as I sat in the backyard with a hemp ale sanding, staining and putting the final touches on it I sat back in looked at my design and logo seeing that what I had envisioned had revealed itself in all its purity. It was such a beautiful moment. And I thought about those individuals whom made it possible, Michael Bartholomew, Shanan Martin, Sasha Talebi, Shelly and Mike..thank you for your support, strength, allowing me to release my creativity with out judgment and most importantly thank you for being true to yourselves. I am grateful for the wisdom that has been shared. That is the only way to truly rise above. Too Solid to be Solid!
