Each one of us fills a space here in a way only we can, and we share our particular brand of energy that only we produce. Each is vital. Sometimes we feel stuck in the sameness of our routine or become so good at doing our thing that we lose touch with the reason we do the thing at all. Whether that thing is caregiving or serving hungry families or cutting into someone\u2019s brain or painting our innermost conflicts or writing a life lesson learned, we keep showing up, doing the thing, or we may lose the will to show up at all. The feeling as if something is missing, as if there\u2019s more to life than this, grabs hold of us, and we feel stuck. Our lives are \u201cpretty good.\u201d We \u201cshould be grateful.\u201d We might even tell ourselves to \u201csnap out of it\u201d and \u201cget back to reality.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What if we kept going with the daydream instead? What if we explored the questions instead of chasing them with a \u201csobering\u201d script? What if there is more joy to be discovered here&#8230;somewhere? Right where you are. As you are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If any of this is resonating, you are not alone. You\u2019re in the right place. The really good news is that you\u2019ve already warmed up for this trek just by noticing and accepting that stuck feeling. That\u2019s where I started too. I felt the words \u201cI just feel stuck\u201d come out of my mouth, and I immediately wanted to ctrl+z in real time. I\u2019m actually grateful that I couldn\u2019t take it back because next I learned that is a natural part of the creative process, and life is a creative process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>How would it feel to book a free curiosity call &#8211; a little space for self-expression and see where it takes you?\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/calendly.com\/owlcreate\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/calendly.com\/owlcreate\">Schedule here.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:14px\">(Image: Digital Collage titled \u201cCreativity\u201d made using Canva Pro as part of <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.expressiveartworkshops.com\/healing-collage-prompts-2021\/\" target=\"_blank\">Shelly Klammer\u2019s Year of Healing Collage 2021<\/a>.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The planet is full of humans going about their usual business today and changing the world with every step.
