>> Here’s the AUDIO for today’s Transformation Tuesday.

Your life is a river.

You were born a being of flow.

Every bend in the river — every plot twist, calling, adventure, transition, even the so-called obstacles and crises in your life — can create a logjam… or a watershed season.

You get to choose.

What do you choose?

Hit reply and let me know.

Oh, one more thing real quick: Keep in mind that often what starts out as a logjam becomes a watershed, as soon as the logs get tweaked back into alignment.

I’ll leave you with a beautiful poem I love to share with my students. It’s called Last Night as I was Sleeping, and it was written by the Spanish poet Antonio Machado.

Last night as I was sleeping,
I dreamt — marvelous error! —
that a spring was breaking
out in my heart.
I said: Along which secret aqueduct,
Oh water, are you coming to me,
water of a new life
that I have never drunk?

Last night as I was sleeping,
I dreamt — marvelous error! —
that I had a beehive
here inside my heart.
And the golden bees
were making white combs
and sweet honey
from my old failures.

Last night as I was sleeping,
I dreamt — marvelous error! —
that a fiery sun was giving
light inside my heart.
It was fiery because I felt
warmth as from a hearth,
and sun because it gave light
and brought tears to my eyes.

Last night as I slept,
I dreamt — marvelous error! —
that it was God I had
here inside my heart. 

Head up + heart out,
