toying with her trumpet
I’ve been getting exactly what I’ve wished for for some time now. maybe I always have, it’s just that in the last couple of years I’m starting to recognise how my dreams are coming true. There is a saying, something about ‘be careful what you wish for’ – good advice, for what we wish for will come to be.
This may sound astonishing and to some incredibly naive – new-agey in the extreme, but I am coming to know it as true. I think what has happened is that in the last couple of years I am paying more attention to what it is I am actually seeking.
I spent years, over a decade I’m sure, writing notes, plans, lists of goals, objectives, dreams and desires. Maybe this was an important stage, I don’t know, but in the last few years there have been very few lists and plans. instead I guess there has been quiet contemplation, a non-hurried processional approach to realising what it I want. Within this contemplative process there has been a combination of meditation and praxis, reflection and action.
As I have pondered, I have acted, so that what I want has come into greater focus and has become more real simultaneously. Another saying comes to mind – ‘it won’t happen overnight, but it will happen’. Lately it has often seemed like just when I am about to act in a way that will lead me away from my dreams something happens that makes me realise that I have been moving towards them for some time already.
