Your Thing is to Have Many Things

Your Thing is to Have Many Things

Don't try to get it correct. To be feminine is to be expressed.

I am perched alone a branch, staring at the birds nest of boxes that society tries to put us in. I don't follow rules and I've never been a fan of "the law." Labels, boxes, sides, and assumptions make me feel unacceptably small. But seriously, what is a well-lived life if we're subconsciously sculpting our days to the general norm? An antiquated baseline, what even is norm?

The recent years have been a radical dismantling of what one should, blossoming into the potential of what one could. My days are built on the premise of flow, as I allow productivity to come and go. I focus and create according to my unique energy-print, flowing in a way that makes me unconventionally efficient.

Throughout our lives, we hear people talk about finding your "thing." What's your purpose? On what are you working?

What's the golden career path going to be? Your life project. The perfected means of money.

I observe many people desperately seeking that "thing," and they cut their songs short when their soul wants to sing. What's the joy of life if we find it right away? We lose the possibilities within trial, error, exploration and PLAY. As if we'll slam our book shut, kick our feet up and be a breeze. When the deepest pleasures in life come from challenge, grit, and grease.

Now it's true that some people are designed to work towards one anchoring goal. In Human Design we learn that a Generator makeup encourages singularity and slow.

But what if your energy falls outside of that view? Your thing is to have many things and through that you break through! I am of this kind. Multi-passionate, eclectic and like a buffet, I need variance and choices each and every day.

I write philosophy in the morning, photograph in the afternoon, manage renovations and projects that allow my practical nature to bloom. I'm consulting small businesses, Feng Shui-ng homes, and creating health plans in my spare. I thrive on variation, dynamism, and any energy-based flare. Teaching yoga, designing recipes, and drawing diagrams is my funky finesse. This is me, unashamed, clear, and expressed.

So let this be your permission, to live however you wish. To have many things, or one if that brings you bliss. All I hope for you, is to know there are no rules, escape the birds nest boxes of society, and unleash your worldly jewels.
