I have gone into my creative cocoon in the woods where I will remain for the rest of year.
I am getting quiet. As I look forward to the coming year full of new workshops, collaborations and big+beautiful creative projects I am filled with anticipation and full to the top with ideas.
How about you? Are you ready to get cookin’ in 2013? Are you dreaming, planning, scheming?
This evening I’m going to invite you to take a breath with me. Before we put our souls to work in the world, let us take a moment to smell the poinsettias.
Playtime: Complete these sentences.
(don’t over think, go with what comes to mind first)

Breathe it in. You did it. Another year of earth school and you made it.
Wherever you are, the words you say, the thoughts you think, and the actions you take are creative choices. Some are bold and daring. Some are subtle and sweet. Some feel like bliss. Some ache. Some are no brainers and some are more…. complicated. What a wonderful task to be an artist in the world, crafting your life to meet the calling of your soul (the wilderness within).
This is me patting you on the back for a year well spent.
I am so very grateful you have chosen to be here in this growing community of wild ones who are crafting a life of freedom, creativity, and adventures of the soul. I am honored to walk beside you.
Until next week.
with WILDish love,
Chris
