Unconventionalism and Opportunities

Tuesday in the land of unconventionalism and there’s still an unsettled weather pattern deliveringing spring-like mornings but warmth can’t be dissuaded from taking center stage.  This is another opportunistic play on words, warmth is not only a reference to the weather. It is also a reference to the feeling of acceptance and clarity of purpose we feel as our lives unfold on the stage that is our life.
Are you experiencing the feeling – are you feeling it?  You can receive it if you are open to it. Are you open to receiving it, allowing it to flow into your life with richness?  Or are you guarded and protective?  Sure, protecting ourselves, feelings and all, is important.  But don’t forget to unlock the door when friends come knocking.  We come knocking at different times so our approach is not always predictable.
Be cautious but not so cautious that you miss the opportunity to entertain happiness and contentment.  Can you do that?  Can you open the door just enough to discover? Sure you can.  Slip the safety chain into place.  You can always remove it.  Peek through the sliver of opening.  Recognize the face?  Sure you do.  It’s me and as I smile you feel the warmth wash over you.  You fumble with the safety chain chastising yourself for being overly cautious.  You call for me to wait as you mouth a word of frustration.  Finally the chain yields and as you swing the door open we share a hug before you invite me in.
Does that sound familiar? This is the warmth of friendship, expected or otherwise. The door is the door to your inner being and you open up to your friends anxiously, happy to have the company.
Advance towards the warmth of friendship and no matter how unpredictable the weather, there will always be one constant in your life.
Have an unconventionally wonderful Tuesday.

Love and hugs, Nikki DiCaro
