Message of The Legend
I Rise Up...70!
Yes, I've lived my life
but it's not over!!! It is never too late to learn something new or
to do something you've not done! And I'm am doing just that, now, at
70.
I want to leave a Legacy
for my grandchildren and their children! I cannot do that if I do not
become someone they can or want to talk about....A Legend!
For me to become a
colorlicious woman of action I had to embrace my past, gain clarity
on what it is I want to do for me (for SELF) that could and would
impact others, have the courage to do something new, different and
out of my comfort zone, be willing to access my inner creativity even
though it wasn't what I was “taught”, collaborate with others and
not always be working on my own, and commit myself to putting in the
time and energy necessary to produce needed change....not just in
mySELF but in the lives of others.
As author Octavia Butler
once stated “...all that you touch you change, all that you change,
changes you. The only lasting truth is change.”
I planted seeds of change
that would have life changing effects but that's exactly what I
needed and wanted. I was not “too old” to change my perspectives.
So each day I just show up and do something that will move me a
little closer to my Intentional Creativity goal. No matter how many
times my Critical Mind attempts to silence my Muse she finds her flow
and keeps putting in the work. Practice, practice, practice, she says
to the Critic, is how I will change the tone of your voice. I don't
want to silence you, I want to work with you to help bring
satisfaction, joy, fun, purpose and more to a well lived life! I will
create, the Muse says, you bring the structure and together we will
laugh, dream, create and take advantage of the ever present
opportunities available! Together we still rise.
With an attitude of
gratitude I Rise Up...70!
