Out of the Box

Out of the Box

This is a canvas of the me that is the future potential. It is the me that I am dreaming and doing into being. This is my alchemy: to unfold the story out of me that is my life, to let go of the lead, and by seeing it in its wholeness transform it into something entirely different. This is me with a new vantage point having spit up the stories and digested them with compassion, acceptance, and hope. For we are ultimately gold, each of us, and it is only in the journey of discovering this for ourselves that we recognize that we were gold all along.
