God gave us fingers–Ma says, “Use your fork.”
God gave us voices–Ma says, “Don’t scream.”
Ma says eat broccoli, cereal and carrots.
But God gave us tasteys for maple ice cream.
God gave us fingers–Ma says, “Use your hanky.”

[tweetmeme]I don’t need to be so serious about it.
Play.
It’s exciting to fool around.
Making love isn’t about making a baby.
It’s about the sensuality of the process.
The play of ideas.
Striving for some Thing more, some Thing different,

Me, as a creative being.
I can’t pinpoint where or when I made the decision,
but at some point I decided – THAT part of me – the very soul of me, is
safer being hidden and ignored.
If I don’t share it, I can never be hurt or disappointed by it.
It can never be held up as no good,
and I will never know I am no-talent.
If I don’t recognize it, I can be sure to stay in a place where no one else does either.

Dreams.
I’m hesitant to use the word ‘dreams’.
The word has a touchy-feely quality that makes me feel kinda icky. ‘Dreams’ can seem kinda pie-in-the-sky. Especially in business.
It’s not that ‘dreams’ are unrealistic or unreal. God, no.
It’s that people often use the word to talk about things they’re not acting in direction of. They use ‘dreams’ to discuss the things that they hope to get, but are doing nothing to create.
What they’re talking about is dreaming.
And it’s a whole other kettle of fish.

[tweetmeme] It’s hard not to indulge in the BIG Questions. It’s tough not to focus on The End we have in mind.
Stop freaking yourself out by thinking you need to know how to get There today.
You don’t have the answers.
Stop indulging and paralyzing your mind with BIG Questions you don’t have the answers for.
Take one daily action. And in that action, keep your goal in mind.
