Intuition - an animation

Intuition is a woman's gift, I've heard (not that men don't own their fair share). But that gift can
be - well, maybe not squandered - but ... squashed. Silenced.

Mine was. I did it to myself. I gave into just about every impulse (no, really. Every one.) and
unapologetically and was rewarded with the kind of experiences that show up in movies.

And then I succumbed to convention. At my age, wasn't it only proper that I start reining
myself in? If I wanted to play with the big boys - the high risk project managers, the successful -
shouldn't I embrace the big boys' methods and values?

My life became much more luxurious. It looked enviable.



I know many aspire to that lifestyle and I'd deny NO ONE the luxuries. If prosperity means
the power to purchase high ends goods, then it all works out.

But I sacrificed my intuition. It just disappeared while I focused on the external things and
nurturing connections that, frankly, felt artificial.

The good news is my intuition's coming back. It doesn't entirely trust me, having been so
rudely abandoned, but it's still back. It doesn't seem to have any problem at all with me caring about prosperity, but it wants that prosperity to be grounded in what I - ME!! - really truly want
and what I truly believe my purpose to be.

So. In honor of what I know to be true, that not every one knows where their intuition rests
or how to call it up: this animation.
I post it with love.
