Inner guidance is our birthright, our compass, and our lifelong companion. While some of us are born deeply connected to this stream of wisdom others must work to hear the soft whisper.
Being born highly sensitive and deeply connected to my guidance has always served me, but none so well as it did on
9/11.
But I’m getting ahead of myself. My inner guidance began preparing me for that day years before.
When I entered college in 1998 I had intentions of becoming an environmental lawyer and saving the planet and animals from ill-intentions. I have always been creative and self-expressive but ignored my dreams of becoming an artist because it was “illogical”. After 4 semesters of political science classes, I felt uninspired. I let myself off the hook and decided to study what felt interesting. The following summer I went to Stanford University and immersed myself in color theory, photography and painting classes. My heart swelled.
