elastic

“You can’t have creativity

unless you leave behind the bounded,

the fixed, all the rules.”

-Joseph Campbell

You’re vulnerable.

Your hard muscles go soft.

Your fleshy raw emotion oozes out.

Authenticity burns like blue fire.

Your muscles get tired carrying your weight.

Letting go feels like you’re dying.

Salty sweat and tears

wash your old hurts clean.

Your bloody heart

feeds your tired liver with hope.

You breathe love into your lungs.

You see with soft eyes,

feel with new skin,

and hear with fresh ears.

Your bones carry you, not your muscles.

Your community cradles you.

You are ready to step In2it!

You are following your sense of

Sight, sound, touch, smell, taste,

And your 6^th sense of Trusting Your Intuition.

You entered this world as a baby.

Your bones were not developed yet.

You were more cartilage than bone.

Your bones strengthen when

you started carrying your own weight.

Your strength is that you’re liquid.

You’re elastic.

You stretch.

You bounce.

You rebound.

Your boundaries are elastic.

You’re either expanding or contracting.

You surprise yourself with how elastic you are.

The floor that carries you

is like a trampoline.

You know that being ‘rock solid’

is flexible and everchanging.

You know that being ‘together’ is being relaxed.

REACH BEYOND

WHAT YOU THINK YOU CAN.
