John O’Donohue: Most people long to step onto the path of creative change that would awaken their lives to beauty and passion, deepen their contentment and allow their lives to make a difference.
He begins: “Of the many callings in the world, the invitation to the adventure of an awakened and full life is the most exhilarating. This is the dream of every heart. Yet most of us are lost or caught in forms of life that exile us from the life we dream of. Most people long to step onto the path of creative change that would awake their lives to beauty and passion, deepen their contentment and allow their lives to make a difference.” From the book, Beauty—The Invisible Embrace: Rediscovering the True Sources of Compassion, Serenity and Hope by John O’Donohue.)
How many times have you been on the creative path of change but aborted the journey or made a u-turn? The path of creative change requires transitions and often the neutral zone of transition sets doubts in motion. Maybe it’s recognizing and accepting the neutral zone? The in-between time when the old is gone and the new is not yet manifest. Basically, it’s still winter so one can’t expect the fullness of spring, and yet… there is beauty and life in the present moment.
