Wright Sat, 28 Jan 2012 23:52:18 +0000 http://charlenecostanzo.com/?p=1400#comment-6442 Thank you for sharing your insightful thoughts with us!  WOW!  I love this blog, in fact I loved them all.  I don't know how I missed them before.  This latest one is exactly what I needed to read.  It puts a different perspective on my overbusy-ness.  I love what you say about asking God to soften my limitations and expand my capacity.  What came to mind when I asked myself what my current plate looks like is a small overflowing, heaped and jumbled plate. It feels powerful, expansive, and honoring to visualize a beautiful large platter with the positive things I want in my life, artfully arranged with sacred space around them.  In fact, I have a large, gorgeous platter stored away that I will display in my home, and arrange on it symbolic items that represent what I'd like in my life.  I never got around to making a vision board, but I'm very excited about creating a vision plate! Thank you for inspiring me, Charlene!

I just went, Ha -- ask for a bigger plate! Yes, that certainly makes sense. I also love the words "expand my territory". Our choir actually sings a song that includes that phrase. And for me, the "bigger plate", is not about taking on more stuff to do, but to really expand myself within, spiritually and mentally -- to know myself as a spiritual being deeper and more solid in my faith. Thank you, Charlene. I love this blog — I have been feeling very busy and overwhelmed and have made the statement that my plate is so full right now. I just went, Ha — ask for a bigger plate!

Besides work, I go to the gym 3-4 nights a week, have one date night weekly with my beloved partner, take a Spanish class, and go to my meditation center on Sundays. I am really content. As I have gotten older I have realized doing less really is more. I feel more expansive and vibrant.

I always take the same route and there is a multitude of trees and plants along the way. Yesterday morning, there was a slight breeze which made the trees sway and the leaves whistle. I was completely captivated, so I sat on the nearest rock, closed my eyes and had a 5 minute meditation in the beauty of my presence.

First off, I LOVE POPCORN - IT IS A REQUIRMENT EVERY SATURDAY NIGHT with our family night at the movies! Secondly I am now playing my new CD "Ancient Dreams" by Wolfs Robe AKA: The Flute Man. Just heard him tonight at our resort and after hearing his special story I had to have a signed copy of his latest work. More on that later. Thirdly, my hubby and I met on the dance floor and love to dance to just about anything. I love to smile as this is one of the gifts God an instilled in me . . . when you smile it's hard to be sad. You have totally inspired me to use your work to help my Network Marketing team turn within to find their GREATNESS and to learn how to let go of inner conflict! You are an amazing woman and someway, somehow wish we could meet or at the very least have a phone conversation. It's because of my 32 year old daughter's death from alcoholism and prescription drug addiction that I have had to pull on my inner strength which has made me even stronger to cope with her twin sisters addicted to meth and prescription drugs. They are both struggling and I am looking forward to sharing your work with them and will most likely get them each a copy of your gift of healing book for their April birthdays. I am looking forward to and so very excited about future communication with you Charlene!
