#1340 - one brick
Imagine you have one Lego brick, and you want to build something.
What would you do?
Most probably, you wait for other bricks ad pieces to manifest. Enough of them to figure out what you can build.
Or maybe, you look at your brick and decide what you want to build starting from it, so you can search for the bricks you need to create the vision you have in mind.
Some days, I feel like I'm a Lego brick waiting to see what other pieces manifest in my life so I can decide my way forward. Unfortunately, I have no control over which bricks will manifest and when. So, I feel stuck at the mercy of events. Reacting to things more than acting towards something.
When that happens, I need someone to remind me that I can be the first brick of a beautiful creation. When I shift into that place, I choose which other pieces I need or want, the ones I keep and the ones I let go. Sure, some bricks I desire may never appear, and I'll have to adjust. The final result may be different from the vision I had in mind, but it is still my creation.
To do so, the first step is to know what brick I am. Luckily, I have friends and mentors who help me figure out that about myself.
Obviously, life is messy, like a bucket full of building bricks of all shapes, sizes and colours. So, sometimes you can choose the pieces to use, and other times you'll have to do with what you have. Still, remembering what you want to build will help you on those days when you feel stuck.
