Yes, You read it correctly – I’m talking about 2026, the end of 2026. As we have been dipping our toes into the waters of another year (In Numerology a Year 1), we’ve been thinking about goals, vision boards, vacation plans, and career navigation. At the Unity Spiritual Center of Vero Beach that I attend they had us write a letter to ourselves expressing where we (hoped) we would be by the mid point of the year. I chose, with some trepidation, FAITH as my #WhiteStoneWord for 2026. Trepidation because I’ve noted that whichever word I’ve chosen tends to bring on challenges and experiences that highlight that word.
So where would I like to be at the end of 2026? Where, with whom, and what would I (we) want to have as a part of this BLINK that is our existence on this plane?
In the #CourseOfMiracles discussion group I’ve been meeting with on Wednesday mornings here in Downtown Fort Pierce, there was a quote this AM that suggested, “A healed mind does not plan. It carries out the plans which it receives through listening to Wisdom that is not its own.” (Lesson 135, paragraph 12). While that tends to trigger denial in the fear based psyche of a long term planner – self insured in my 20’s, will and trusts set up, savings and investments, all those things that “responsible people” have, I actually operate most of my life by listening intently to where I am directed to move, speak, take action. I revert to journaling, prayer, meditation, creating ART, as ways to access deeper sources of wisdom. Perhaps that has been the blessing of having unreliable adults in my life – I learned LONG ago that the wisdom I (and those adults) possessed left much to be desired. I found solace and counsel in the paths of NATURE, the still, quiet voice of intuition, and the whispers of ideas and warnings from…
That said I/We do live in this world of mortgages and credit cards, bank accounts, and politics, and choosing to be “In the world yet not of it,” can feel like a luxury. So perhaps goals can be more thought of as suggestions to the Universe, intentions to keep our minds and hearts directed to those things that make us feel excited, inspired, encouraged. If what the Divine offers up isn’t exactly what we’ve imagined, finding gratitude and appreciation for both that which is, and checking in with the feedback we’ve received seems a healthy way to engage.
Back to the title – Intentions for exciting opportunities, in my business who’s ideas have finally been coalescing – Artmaking as a Mindfullness Tool, to travel, perhaps another RV road trip, or booking that trip to France, more teaching, more FUN adventures, better health, all of these and more are touchstones now.
Our time is limited, our joys can be fleeting, maybe today is a day to reconnect to what it is YOU (I/We) want our lives to be about.
Just a Thought 😉
Hi All!
Not the best picture, and what can you expect from a 4+ year old Android phone. The adventure though, that was really something. 7 years ago I had decided to head multiple 100’s of miles from MD to TN to view my 2nd #ToatalEclipse. This choice was the beginning of many many, dramatic changes in my life – the loss of my business, the sale of my house and boat, my husband’s stroke, my mother’s death, and also the reclamation of MY life’s purpose, To Nudge, teach, and learn, each of us to and towards our highest becoming, utilizing my curiosity, creativity, and WONDER, to help make this world better – of course while leaving room for that which is even better, for the highest good of ALL.
