I do not see the opposite of hopelessness as hope. I experience it as a deep, profound sense of knowing, in the company of which, hopelessness can not exist.
There are a lot of people out there who are sitting up, saying – life IS short!
These are the kinds of things I am hearing – do any of them sound familiar?
I’ve just had a major wake-up call, my best friend is loosing her battle with cancer…
or
I’ve just woken up to the fact that after 35 years I cannot blame the fact that my relationships are not working, on the other person…
Or
I am so tired of settling for less than the exciting, engaged life that I have always pictured!

What if there’s something inside of you, causing the results you are getting in life? And what if there’s something you can do about it? What would be thee best time to dig in, figure that out, and change it?
The small day to day dreams we have are more important than the epic, one in a lifetime dreams that we tend to think of when we use the word “Dream.” The dreams of being different in our life right now.
Drumming together is a powerful metaphor for life. In relationship, when your partner is sad, don’t go down with them, in a misguided effort to support them. Is it truly supportive to be sad along with them? Consider instead offer compassion and caring – while staying strong and happy yourself. Hold the beat. Give them a rhythm to reach for when they are ready to come back in.
Trust can be developed and deepened by noticing and celebrating, when you are in a great place, what trusting action helped get you there.
The biggest part of doing something challenging or scary is setting your mind to the fact that you ARE going to do it. NOW. The time has come. This is it. You know – all those thoughts of determination and conviction. How do you turn them from words in your head into a knowingness in your body? How do you gain the courage to start?
