Mistakes are cool. I call them redirections— the grail that holds the potential for all our reinventions. What if they come to remind us of our heart’s true intentions— the dreams we dream of but never dare mention? Maybe they even point to the answers we seek to our big, eternal questions. We tread carefully, trying so hard to avoid learning the lesson- and yet we never truly pay attention. Do we? We’re bound by the world’s imposed expectations, But honestly— how do we ever find the Connection if we keep performing the dance with such dedication? Where is the mess? The mire and distress? The indigestible tension that pulls the guttering out of us and spills like infection? I think we mis-took our mis-takes for downfalls. What if we defied the convention? What if we’re missing the gist of it; the heartline to freedom— the road to revelation?
