I've always produced. Always. I was making up skits and plays when I was 4, dressed in plastic high heels, often wore a cape like Mighty Mouse (from the cartoons), and would jump off chairs feeling rather 'mighty' myself. At one point I thought it'd be fun to be an elephant when I grew up, [...]
A colleague sent me a card today with the following quote... 'The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace things, but burn, burn, burn, [...]
The key, I am finding, is listening. The 'answers', if you call them that, the clues, signs, signals, guides, are everywhere. We just need to pay attention, to listen. I've had another test to my own faith in navigating through yet another (what I call), creative 'funk'. You know what I'm talking about, surely. [...]

"We do not see things as they are. We see them as we are." - Talmudic Proverb Ahhhhhh says me as I transform a funk into a lotus flower. Why? Because I can! One must ALWAYS leave room for an opening! And FYI.....In Hinduism and Buddhism the lotus flower symbolizes awakening to the spiritual [...]
Have you ever noticed when something shifts...needn't be a major life event, nonetheless, it's a shift of magnitude that takes place somewhere, somewhere within yourself.

I am reminded of the Hindu God, Ganesh this evening....the overcomer of obstacles. And Pan, lusty, randy, playfully serious Pan. Really half man half centaur, though I rather like this depiction of him. Both embody aspects I admire, Pan with his fertile nature and ability to beckon a crowd and Ganesh, for his knowing.....he [...]
I opened my business....my Carl House business. Seven years ago there was so much I did not know. Seven years ago I demonstrated 'moving forward as if'....as if I could create whatever my mind imagined, and more. Seven years ago today I was, like today, dreaming up things and seeing what would happen 'or better' [...]
It might mean your heart changes. Or that you let go of an old way of being. That you finally did what you've been intending for so long but didn't quite know how. Or that God, the Universe, that awesome essence, light, power, jump-started an initiative for you. Or maybe you just decided to stop [...]
....under my feet I feel the sky tumbling down, tumbling down.... Those words were in my head soon after I awoke this morning. That and the memory that I'd dreamt I tattooed some emblematic design all over my face, a big blotch of blue on the right side, which I was happy I could cover [...]
