Soul Compass

I had all these ideas of how this time it was going to be “different”. How this time I wasn’t going to fail like I had in the past. So, I made a decision to let myself off the hook, no more judgments. Perfection is not holding myself to an unattainable standard, it’s accepting the me for me. It’s about the imperfections and the jaded perspectives. It’s about doing things no other way than my way with the understanding of a power greater than myself, directing and guiding me through the mist. Feeling the power of that intangible source run through me and knowing that it is the root of my compassion, enabling me to practice being selfless, teaching me how to love and being there when there is no one else.

I wanted to document this journey from ground zero to beyond. My awareness has been dampened by the need to have “the perfect” first entry when really this is all that it is. The alpha and the omega, from here all things are possible. From here – the wheels have been set into motion, there is no stopping it now. I am focusing on practicing self-care, getting a ritual going and reading to my hearts’ content and lastly, I have been meditating. Often times, falling asleep during the meditation but none the less doing it.

 

Best,

AMO

This is where I begin.

They say life is too short,  I’ve also heard that its the longest thing you’ll ever do. I just thought while I’m at it I might as well write about it. So here it goes, my diary that lies open to anyone who can get their hands on it as it sits on the windowsill next to the drops of rain melting down the glass that separates you from the rest of the world. I shall write an open book, cataloging the impermanence of life, continuously progressing through the setting suns and rising moons. Holding on to the delicate juiciness of whatever topics happen to fall into my vision. These are the lessons of life, the love of life, the time of life told through the eyes of yours truly; Marie Wilder. I hope you look for the similarities in your own life. I hope you are able to use some of what you read to your benefit. Most of all I hope you are inspired. This is where I begin writing the book of my past and living in the present.

I invite you to join me, leave comments, tell me what you think, start a dialogue with me or just sit back and enjoy! You will hear me talk about my experiences, some reviews, art, music, dreams, ideas, writing and just life in general.

Thank you for reading.
