imaginary lives and things i love to do

i must shre the wheel of life i drew out as i revise to offer the life coaching and the core values and the order i have selected
as i look at the list of tasks for this second week of the artist way course
i see the suggestion /instruction
7
draw a circle
divide it into six pieces of pie
label them
exercise
spirituality
play
work
adventure/romance
friends


 place a dot in the each slice
 representing level of fulfilment towards the outer rim to indicate great
near the centre if not so great
connect the dots
as we work of life coaching towards a balance
we turn this starry tarantula into a mandala

work at pulling these dot towards the rim where they are impoverished

i am seeing the wheel of life has more spokes
marriage/ partnership
family
social
personal development
career
attitude
health
financial
home
tangibles
leisure/recreation
spiritual

twelve as opposed to six

'the slightest attention to our impoverished areas can nurture them'---and refresh us


exercise                         health
spirituality                   spiritual
play                               leisure/recreation
work                             financial/career/tangibles
adventure/romance         personal development
friends                            social/family/home/marriage or partnership

these do not equate so well
these two lists
two lists that do are I Corinthians 13 love is 4 Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud 5 or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged6 It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. 7 Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.




and Galatians 5.22 fruit of the spriit

22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. 24 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. 25 Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. 


So task 8 is to list ten changes

Society for it wrong there are six primary colours 
needed to make claen clear green violet and orange
abundance


yet brian was right less is more
the pentatonic scale is the cheer of blues music
bright colours flattened thirds and fifths 
chosen stepping stones in the river of music


humour and joy and inituitive heart leaps in the seeming paradox
of simplicity and grace witihin this diversity of choosings
don't 




'reconciliation of opposites' =creativity use both the more formal life coaching spokes and the 
artists way cake






God is in the whisper of washing the dishes
as well as in the estuary view from my morning walk




So to walk now .Amen
