Writing is a passion of mine.
My other passion, horses, melds with writing and coaching to
address my core passion which is the "adventure of life" or more
accurately, the pursuit of play. I write, horse-around, and
coach because it is fun and it is my transportation to
passionate play. Play as I use it here, means joy and the utter
lack of resistance to being in the moment. It is the
all-encompassing sensual experience that includes the
ever-present current of our inextricable connection to life.
If I have a certain emotion
elicited by an experience, I love to write about the experience
in a very real and sensual way. As I proceed, I build the
emotion to a fervent level within myself thus expanding my
experience of that emotion and allowing it a place within.
Writing transports what is “within” out and what is “out” back
in. For me, it creates a sense of oneness, a dissolving of
perceived separateness. I have a greater awareness of self than
I previously had for having written a piece or, for that matter,
having coached a session. The experience is the same when I
coach.
Life is not a steady, hum-drum
beat (at least for me), but rather a symphony complete with
crescendo and berceuse (lullaby). The interesting thing is that
I have begun to notice that every crescendo holds at its heart a
berceuse and the berceuse waits for the crescendo. One is not
whole without the other, nor is the imagination incited unless
we hear life’s myriad tones combined.
