Mom and Martha Beck

If you're doing something you love with people you love in a place you love, you are going to create something of value to the world.

—Martha Beck, One on One with Martha Beck: Money

I subscribe to Martha Beck's quote of the day.Sometimes the words strike a chord, sometimes, they don't. This morning I woke up thinking, "I need to call Mom, I need to talk to her about the truth in my life right now." I checked my email first, and there on the top of the list was Mom, asking where are you?, Are you OK?, There is a connection between us that traverses the miles, transcends societies definition of communication. I felt her thinking about me. The email following hers was Martha Beck.

Martha spoke to me this morning, and gave me my answer to Mom's email.(And thanks for asking, Mom, I love you, too.). I am gestating once again and the process happens in a deeply quiet, private place inside my soul. I really don't want to talk about this stuff until I have a clear understanding about how I feel, how to describe what is shifting inside my heart. And some of that may not end up being appropriate fodder for this blog, we shall see. I have a camera full of blog worthy things to talk about, but I am finding that other endeavors are feeding me in a more satisfying way right now, that's all. Plus, I am seriously thinking about changing the name of my blog. Reno is an entirely new chapter, The Sparks Experience is over.

I love my life, I cannot imagine what I will create of value to the world, but right now even that does not matter. My source every morning comes from deep love and profound gratitude. I bathe my heart in it and face the world with joy on my face. I'll be in touch sooner than later, I can feel it all bubbling to the surface. I love each and every one of you, my beloved blog readers, but right now, it's Lori Time and I am taking it. I deserve it.
