Imagine, for a second, that you are sitting in front of a person that knows you better than anyone else in the world. This person knows you so well, that they know all of your life experiences. Not only do they know your experiences, but they know everything you’ve ever experienced in life, from your own perspective.

Does this person exist? Well, to be honest, I’m not sure.

Awhile ago now, I began to play around with a practice that you might have heard of. It’s called automatic writing.

My mother introduced me to it years ago. All that automatic writing consists of is emptying your mind (sometimes done by writing out your thoughts until you feel “blank”) and then writing out what “comes though,” without controlling or dictating the message.

The first few times I tried this, I didn’t get much out of it. But eventually, what came through was (to my mind) some pretty useful insight about my life and experience.

I found that the less I attempted to control or interpret the message as I was “channeling” it, that understanding the verbiage later, became easier and easier; the messages becoming more and more useful to me.

After doing this for a few years, I have found that my ability to “drop in” and “receive” input from this inner source has gotten better and better. I can ask a question, “drop in,” receive an answer, and then “drop out” to read and interpret it.

What follows is a kind of conversation between me and the insight that answers my questions. I don’t know what to call that insight, so I usually just refer to it as my IS (Inner-Self/Source) or IB (Inner-Being).

The nature of these conversations has always “felt” to come from an extremely positive place. I have never received anything from these interactions that has been malicious or scary in any obvious way. Usually the messages are affirming, loving, and kind. Occasionally, they get a bit dense in their “philosophical” nature, depending on the questions that I ask. Usually however, they are simple, clear, and true.

 

Until recently, I had kept the messages that I had received from this Inner Source mostly a secret. This was not so much because I was afraid of people finding out and judging me for what I was doing, but because most of what had “come though,” had only been relevant to my life experience. It simply wouldn’t be very interesting to someone else, who didn’t know me.

In last few weeks, this has changed. My curiosity about life and nature of my experience has prompted me to ask questions more boldly about living, and the topics that are contained within it. What is now coming through is information that I believe might be helpful to others as well as myself. And so, this blog is my little experiment to see if that could be true.

 

A Little About Me

I have always been driven to understand the life that I live for myself and the people around me. If I had one word to describe what makes live worth living for me, it would be magic.

Magic, for me, is not about casting spells or riding brooms (both of which, can certainly be fun). It’s about the discovery of life’s continual unfolding in new ways, all of the time. I take delight in the dance that we are, and what one can make of it.

I ask questions because I am curious. I am curious about how to be more of myself, how to love more fully, how to give more completely, and how to live a greater life.

I don’t see the world as being a broken place. But I also have a deep desire to be of service to those who might see it as such.

 

I hope that whomever takes the time to read this, can see how magical life is. And if you feel that you cannot, stick around for awhile… I can be very convincing.
