“Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing.”
Helen Keller
I can’t imagine a more truthful bit of wisdom. The question is how daring do we want this adventure – our life – to be. I believe Helen Keller was a model for daring and a model for living beyond all restrictions. When I think of Helen Keller I begin to re-evaluate my own potential.
I come from the Celtic tradition, steeped in Celtic Wisdom which originates from an ancient culture which valued personal relationships and friendship, the rhythms of nature, including the interplay between light and dark, and creativity, magic, and beauty. It revered the soul as an expression of unity and a symbol of oneness. So, at these times turn to periods of quiet and self-reflection to seek the answers to the questions below.
- What are the restrictions in my life that are holding me back from seeing life and living live as a daring adventure?
- What will it now take for me to move into a new realm of possibilities and adventure in the months to come?
- What is one small step that I am now willing to make to live more in the world of adventure and possibility?
Slowing myself down to answer these questions of inner reflection is one technique I use to get myself on course. Repeating the process is a way to keep the journey in the right direction. In conscious living it becomes our responsibility to stop all busyness and to reflect on what is possible. Join me. Give some thought to the questions above – because it is in your thoughtful inquiry that newness and opportunity is born.
