Turning the gears of emotion
I do, however, have a couple of exciting prospects in the works, both of which I'm going to intentionally neglect to talk about in any amount of detail. It's my goal this time around to attempt to limit my excitement until I know, with a little more certainty, what will come of them. Suffice it to say for now, that both of these things have the potential to prove to me that landing in this neck of the woods was perfectly appropriate and ultimately satisfying.
And so, as adopted as my mantra of late, I'll leave you with this little piece of advice that I received recently:
"There can be no transformation of darkness into light and of apathy into movement without emotion." Clear thinking and impeccable logic will not be sufficient to guide you to your next great adventure. You need the driving force of succulent emotion rising up in your solar plexus, the lush power of raw sensitivity piercing your heart. Feel as deep as you dare."
I've also recently been challenged to "somehow stir up a visceral sense of moving speedily toward the future", and that is exactly what I intend to do.
