I’ve asked what you will do differently in 2015 as your Call to Adventure. I shared mine: to celebrate turning 50 instead of ignoring it. All year. Adventures in Spirit.
Here is more of the Adventure Map and a New Year’s gift for you!
After accepting your Call, whether resigned or willing, you must receive help: companions, a mentor, gifts, and divine help. Those Resources. You need SOLID support ‘cause the next step may be the hardest: crossing a threshold that tests your commitment and courage.
That is where I come in.
I KNOW this roadmap. I’ve studied and lived it. So have you. We know what’s next~ the Road of Trials with all kinds of tests, which sometimes we blow. Like that sugar binge, losing it with your mom or kids, saying “yes” to a colleague when your whole body clearly wants a “no.”
There is Unfamiliar Terrain, whether eating different vegetables, going to a gym, standing in your power.
The Descent into Darkness, where you may curl up and cry for days, feel like your job has no meaning, wonder whether you can live with your partner.
There are Monsters: fear of speaking your mind, disapproval of your family, chocolate bars at the checkout.
We do not journey alone. We ask for and receive help. Coolness for you, I am offering that help. I will hold you while you flounder in the Belly of the Whale because I KNOW what it feels like and will help you remember it doesn’t last. And since these are necessary and sacred places, I will help you stay there and wring out all the snotty, tough love.
There is nothing like looking, if you want to find something. You certainly usually find something, if you look, but it is not always quite the something you were after. ~J.R.R. Tolkien, The Hobbit
This is a beautiful result of setting new intentions, answering the Call, and being on the Journey. How boring to get what we want! What arrives IS often harder, usually more interesting, and always necessary. I don’t question that any more. The Monster, Shapeshifter, or Temptation has already arrived, so deal with it.
There’s more to the Adventure Map. Much more soulful, nourishing terrain to explore. It isn’t out there in the world, a book, or some YouTube. It’s your life.
