Starfish


Inner Starfish
What does a starfish look like when you turn it over?  It is undulating, pulsating little hair like filaments that draw from the center out.  It is this center that is its resource fo fuel and life.  Beyond the center it spreads open in all directions as far out as it possibly can.  Its use is…to be beautiful, to decorate, to inspire. What is it’s defense from predators?  It retracts, draws in towards it center and hides like a thorny, rough ball.  I am curious as to why the starfish exists?
What does your inner starfish look like?  We are vast limitless beings contained by an undulating, pulsating body with our center at navel and heart.  We grow in all directions, move in all directions and feel in all ways.  We are vulnerable especially when we do not limit our capacity to feel and love. 
What does our defense look like?  Quite similar to the starfish I imagine.  We get tight, rigid, close down, round over, and disguise self and true feelings.  We limit our natural vibrant self to express and live out authentically like the starfish. 
I believe some of us are here to decorate the lives of others, express joy, love fully embracing all, and of course expand self in all directions as the God of your understanding or Universe destined you to be.
