Getting "SUCKED IN"

Can be a Success

As strange as it sounds taking a “Walk in the Desert” and living in the dryness life often offers has profound benefits. Being isolated in barren places and sun-scorched spaces helps you “desert” personal preconceived notions about life and environmental conditioning.

As strange as it sounds
, “Getting SUCKED IN can be a Success” by being courageously openminded, being brave to embrace new things that tackle the test of “LETTING GO”, reconsider everything you know, be open to editing all your environment has taught you to believe, and to shake the stubbornness of complacency – just jump in, “re-learn” to fearlessly face the psychology of change. Succulents represent strength to grow in a desert, survive in drought, drink solitary thought, seek the glory in solace, and see the opening of your mind knowing one day it will be “Right as Rain” with radiant rainbows for each hue of emotion that express free thinking and free speech. Now, I am going to dine on my succulent “dessert." Always grateful for lightning and thunder bringing the storm of new lessons. Make space for your personal succulent and put a bolt of light in every room!
