Who Would You Be?

Halloween has just passed. Did you have fun? My son continued his tradition of making his transformers costume from scratch with his dad. This year he was Grindor, a helicopter transformer. It’s really fun watching the senior and junior engineers working together as they built the costume from idea to form. Of course, as the family historian and photographer, I took some pictures as well as videos of the creative process. This kind of memories are simply priceless.

The other day, I saw an invitation from a local Buddhist center for their Halloween gathering. Halloween and Buddhism. Hmmm, quite an interesting and unlikely combination. What intrigued me, also, was the invitation to dress up as either who you were in the past, or who you will be in the future. I thought, it would be SO fascinating to see how everyone dressed up at the gathering.

Even though I didn’t attend the gathering, I pondered what costume I would choose, if I were to attend. I didn’t want to dress up as my past self. That’s for sure. Who I was was a painfully shy, insecure young girl, who tried desperately to prove herself and her self-worth, seeking others’ love and approval at the cost of her own well-being. Who I am today is so much more joyful, confident, successful and at peace with myself. Who do I see myself to be? When I asked the question to my higher self, this image came to me.

I saw myself with HUGE angel wings, expanded, so vividly I could see the feathers moving with the breeze. In my right hand was a sword and in my left hand was a candle or some sort of healing instrument with a soft glow. The candle was to illuminate, inspire and heal. The sword was to defend and free people from the bondage of whatever held them prisoners and prevented them from being their true self.

That would be a pretty cool costume to fashion, huh?

But, seriously, when I thought about the vision, it makes total sense to me. It’s definitely aligned with my life purpose.

Now, it’s YOUR turn. Who would YOU be?
