The Final Portland

We cannot discover new oceans until we have the courage to lose sight of the shore. ~ Muriel Chen


Here we go again friends. Year 2011 was all about seeing the world and noticing very specific things about myself and others. I grew so much in connection with this world and it's people, but I know there is still so much to be experienced. How delicious is this life? The year 2012, for me at least, is going to be transformative. This dream will be my reality. I am following my bliss. And I will never have to say, "oh I wish I would have followed my intuition". I am going to do the irrational move here. I hear what people say, and I accept some of their well- thought out guidance. But I truly believe, when you have a gut feeling, you must follow that voice. That, is the voice of the divine. Working in all of us. And when we follow our true callings, things happen to us that we did not expect. Already, I see some major beautiful changes happening in my life. I am challenged every day to not listen to my pesky ego, and to listen to the greater voice inside me (and in all of us). How great is it that I get an opportunity to share something I believe in with all of my soul? I am so blessed, I sometimes wonder how I got so lucky. Portland seems like a place to discover more. A place to grow in ways I never imagined. A place where I am clearly being called to. I will take this challenge, even if it is not usual. I do not point fingers at anyone for taking a different path. I am taking this leap. This leap of faith, that all will be right with the world. I leave in 2 days on my journey to "the final portland". Jessica and I had an epiphany when we both simultaneously chose portland as our destiny. We had been traveling the world, seeing so many magnificent PORTS, that the final Port of land would obviously be PORT LAND. There is magic everywhere people, just open your eyes. Love to all my family and friends in California. You have blessed me so much, it becomes difficult to leave. But please know that we are never truly apart. Love connects us all, and I love you with all of my heart.
