Beyond Intellect

My mom and I talk often. A few weeks ago, we were talking about her book, "Beyond Intellect: Journey Into the Wisdom of Your Intuitive Mind" and we were talking about how people use the book.

In her book, Susan (my mom) asks the reader to open the book to whatever location "speaks" to you. A lot of readers do this, and they have told my mom that they receive the information that they require.

I have decided to try this out more frequently, and write the experiences down. The past year has been all about unknowns. I quit my job at the end of 2009, I was doing business development for a professional services firm, but I wasn't liking what my effort was contributing to. After quitting, I had some time to myself. My passion is acting, and I thought perhaps this would give me the time to breathe and devote myself to my passion. Unfortunately, bills still had to be paid, and there aren't many acting jobs where I lived. I worked in a temporary job, which had great people, but was not engaging. At the end of July, my partner (at the time... more on that maybe) and I packed our stuff away into storage, and flew to Indonesia, where we are volunteering until January.

There will be many adventures, challenges, lessons, insights, laughs and knowing me, a few tears... and a wonderful way for me to put my mom's book to the test.

Arohanui,
Sara
