I spent last weekend at Sonia Choquette's Traveling at the Speed of Love retreat at Unity Village. I've never had such fun at a retreat before. According to Sonia, we primarily experience Spirit as laughter and joy, and boy, did we ever get immersed! Sonia gave us tools for living life at the speed of love: We danced, we breathed (ha!), we named our Spirit and our ego/pet, we worked in small groups, we watched her guide folks thru transformations, we named what we wanted to experience next, etc.
All this week I have been on a high from the retreat. Not even the possibility of being laid off or having my pay and/or hours cut changed my mindset. I am determined to be joyful thru this experience no matter what. We won't know anything for sure until at least the next 2 weeks and maybe even the next few months. Nothing like living in the question!
Spirit is my Source. I happen to love my coworkers and I believe in the work we do. That being said, I know that if this channel of abundance closes, even partially, there will be other channels that open for me. There will be more opportunities to share my particular gifts.
I am not unrealistic. I have unemployed relatives and friends. The employment picture is not a pretty one right now. Yet I believe I can be more productive and creative with a postive attitude than a negative one.
Convention is here!
Our annual convention is next week. This could be my last one as an employee of Unity Worldwide Ministries. I don't know. No one knows.
I love convention! It's a chance to shmooze with folks from all over. Unity folks are generally huggy people. Lots of endorphin highs all week long. Lots of workshops, keynote speakers, lunches and dinners with folks I love, sharing information about what services we provide for you, plus the business meeting. There are long days, for sure, but they are filled with energy, inspiration and connection. Those of us in the home office staff look forward to this time every year.
In the midst of of all of this is Spirit, moving through everyone, showing up in diverse, creative, unique ways. If you are at convention in Overland Park this year, I'll be the one in a perpetual dance party!
