Moving Day
With tomorrow being "my" day and this end of the year "reflective" energy surging through me, it's no wonder that I awoke with a strong inner message delivered straight to my consciousness to propel me further forward. I promptly shared it via Twitter and Facebook but felt inclined to blog it as well today. Here goes...
Making peace with the past includes accepting some tried and true thinking patterns just aren't working for YOUR greater good. So ditch 'em! Tried and true beliefs from family, community, religion and greater society CAN manifest results YET not your desired results. So ditch 'em! Antiquated beliefs, thoughts and ideas are being replaced today with LIFE affirming truths that will move your Life In Full Expression forward positively. Let the "moving" begin.

As I mused over this message, I envisioned two moving teams arriving at my "mental home". While one team commenced to move out all the old stuff (antiquated thinking) through one door, the other team brought in spanking new stuff (LIFE affirming truths) through another door. It was exhilarating visualization!
I am so glad God, in His Sovereignty, can bring us gently and consistently into our FULLER selves...beyond pain and self-imposed limitations...when we allow Him. I'm geeked to say "it's moving day"!
P.S. For my Blogger followers, today I am also officially moving my blog to christietayloronline.wordpress.com. Follow me to my new online blogging home.

Reflecting: Like Clockwork:
The closer I get to my birthday (12/30) the more reflective and restless I become. I muse over my year's accomplishments and struggles. I make peace with both. I ponder over immediate and long-term future goals...and deal with the restlessness. It's like ants in your pants or a rocket preparing for take-off.
Yet I have lived long enough to know, I can't run off just yet. This is the most powerful visualization time of the year for me. I have learned to paint the picture...write the vision...make it plain. So with all this incredible mental energy surging what do I do? I pause. I focus squarely on my latest life adventure: my scriptwriting career.
If you've never ventured beyond your comfort zone, as I did when I left a radio career after a decade, you have no idea how scary and lonely one can feel. Yet, my desire to live LIFE fully propelled me through the fears and loneliness INTO newfound faith, love and friendships. So here I go again...
As I ease on down "my yellow brick road", I am finding amazing people to journey with...like my cool Tweet crew @TFWScribe. Yeah, I got that plug in...lol. However, mother's sobering advice about Joseph in the Bible comes to me again (because she calls and reminds me) that I "still" can't tell everybody... EVERYTHING. Yes ma'am. :D
Until I can jump on the table and do my victory dance... *exhales deeply to restrain self*... I'll just hold my cards closer and ponder these things in my heart.

Storytelling: The Call. The Push.
Storytelling is as old as humanity. Reality and fantasy have blended since antiquity. Some tales have inspired the souls of man until they rose to the level of religions. As I muse over my epic journey of becoming a highly skilled storyteller via TV/film, I am reminded of the "why" I must tell stories. Why? To inspire those who read or see my stories to live their life to their fullest...beyond limitations imposed by themselves, others or circumstances.
As an avid movie buff for years, it was watching "October Sky", which "moved" me to write. "Book of Eli" cemented the "must" write in me...and now "The Tree of Life" continues that inspiration. I affirm today that the sacredness of storytelling calls me forth and pushes me forward...simultaneously. My answer is my surrender to both.

The Black List: This Screenwriter's Dream
I first heard of the Black List last year and was quite impressed, but to hear its conception moved me to tears. I'm always deeply touched when I hear how life-affirming realities are born. I loved his closing line. Definitely inspiration for my writing. (cbt)
