The Direction of Intention

49.
Join me in inspiring truly powerful people. Each day I will add a new thought, story or idea to support your quest and mine.
A most useful reminder on a dark day: Meaning isn’t something that I find it is something that I bring. The meaning isn’t in the experience it is in how I story the experience.

Questions like, “why doesn’t my life have any meaning?” imply that meaning can dribble away like water from a broken cup. It supports the notion that meaning and I are separate. It supports the notion that meaning is a thing that is attained or lost like a coin.

In all great hero/heroine cycles, the seeker has an adventure and discovers a capacity within themselves that they previously did not know existed. It is an inner capacity already in their being; what they find is within and what they gain is a new perspective on themselves and the world: new eyes.

Meaning is the ultimate shape-shifter and will take any form that I choose.

Because meaning is something that I bring to each moment it is something can I tend (yes, like a garden…), something I can in-tend, it is how and why I create the world I inhabit today. It is not fixed. It is fluid and changes as I change, because I change.
