Envision your highest self. Now, show up as them in your daily life. And instead of just showing up as that person what if we also behaved as if the world was also a welcome home? Imagine a world where all people, societies, and structures were functioning at their highest and best. Vibrating in that realm of better and better performance. How would that shift our energy? How would that shift the way we feel each day? If the news, world, and people that surround us reflected their best and most honest selves back at us? How would that look?
The world might then feel like a welcome home. To me, the world would look like equity, anti-racism, and the general abundance of “isn’t this wonderful?” The feeling would be nurturing, whole, and loving. The energy that it espoused would be affirmation, justice, and confidence – not just for me as an individual but for all of humanity. Our conversations would begin with, “How can we do even better?” Coming from a place of mutual understanding and respect. Recognizing that we all want what is best for ourselves and each other. Value and care for our fellow human beings would be based on shared humanity, generosity of spirit, and love. Mutual respect based in the shared recognition that for me to do well includes you and does not come at a cost to you.
My highest self is an orchestrator in that world. An optimist who empowers others, lifting as I rise. An author and artist invited to share and create wonder. Someone who appreciates the great and small among us. A living legacy of community, creativity, health, and home. These gifts we share with generosity to each other and the world.
This space is dedicated to that highest power, that purest, and most beautiful vision for who we are and what we can be together. It is dedicated to that dream and those striving to reach it. May this space be one of safety, support, empathy, vulnerability, and love. May we co-create this vision and thrive in the beauty that is possible by living as if utopia were already here today.
Welcome home.
