Don't Die With Your Song Still Inside You

How often do you listen to the little voice with in your head?  Now there is a difference, sometimes the voice is negative and harmful to you.  I like to call it my Itty Bitty S#%&y Committee.  The negative talk that sometimes can be very loud.  What I've been learning from a beautiful friend of mine is to ask this negative self talker inside my head to trust me. 

Trust is a big word for me, it came up a week ago when working with my massage therapist/reiki master.  She was down at my feet and said to me the word "trust".  A bunch of emotions came up.  Trusting others to help me, trusting myself, and trusting the Universe.  All those three areas I'm still working on.  I'm not perfect, I'm me, which is perfect in my heart.  I know I got stuff to work on, we all do!



Tonight I was watching the movie via you-tube of "The Shift" it has Wayne Dyrer in it as the main character.  It's a pretty neat movie.  Lots of great messages in it.  The one that stuck with me this time is "Don't die with your song still inside you."  Now, that's a different voice, it's the voice in your heart.  I took it as what is your heart song?  We all have one in us.  Maybe it's painting, speaking, gardening, dancing.  Take a moment and listen in silence to your heart.  What is it really trying to tell you?

Mine is dance, and being of service to others.  As I wrote about it in my short story, being told by my Mum that I don't look like a dancer any more to stop dancing broke my heart.  I completely stopped dancing.  To the point when in high school at dances friends had to show me how to dance.  I slowly started to dance again.  Till now in this present time I dance at least once a day.  Even around in my living room to a piece of music.

This past week, I've also had wonderful opportunities to meet with friends for tea and have amazing conversations.  Making brilliant connections with others, creating and dreaming big with them.  One friend and I are planning a women's weekend in the mountains in a couple of months.  Working on the mind, body, and spirit of being a woman, in all aspects.  Both the spiritual side and sensual side.  It was so much fun to create with her, and then come home and create two different "play lists" on my I-Pod to use for the weekend.

Another friend has asked me to assist her with volunteer things for an event/workshop she is having in the fall.  It's going to be so much fun working with her!

I am listening to the song in my heart and acting on them.  Will you stop Sister and listen?

I leave you with this beautiful mini movie from you-tube all about dancing.  I love the quotes in this.  Enjoy!
