My response to Day 2 #quest2015 prompt from Jason Silva begins here and now... My response to Day 2 #quest2015 prompt from Jason Silva begins here and now...

I'm going to be breaking the rules of convention in this blog post. Please be aware of that right from the start. I've never been a fan of convention anyway, so here goes everything.

I am presenting this adventure post because I am participating in #Quest2015 hosted by Jeffrey Davis at Tracking Wonder. You may still leap in if you would like (and I strong advise you to do so.)

Today our visionary prompter, Jason Silva, encouraged our questing process in this way.

"In what ways might you artfully curate your life in 2015 to occasion serendipity, creativity and awe?"

I read Jason's words about an hour ago. 5:30 a.m. My feet hadn't hit the floor yet and I tossed and turned a bit thinking, "How am I going to respond to this? I still had the blog post from Day 1 in an unpublished blog post! In my current life circumstance with all its busy-ness, what can I do to begin to curate my life and collaborate with the divine to artfully create the life work that will be and do what it is meant to be and do?"

I realized I don't have to "do any of this" like any one else. My fellow questers blew me away with their blog posts so eloquently crafted with so many fanciful just right terms. I didn't think I could "do it" their way so instead I am intending to begin my 2015 artful life in exactly Julie-esque terms.

(In an hour or two, another photo will appear here.)

I will show up. I will look up. I will translate.

I will be sharing images and words throughout today here on my blog as well as on instagram, twitter and facebook. I will be doing exactly those three things: Showing up, looking up, and translating because when I choose to be in awe of myself (as many people actually are of me which is surprising to me most of the time) this is exactly what I have been doing, simply without the intentional action and grace I could be tapping into each and every day.

(Yes, another image for you to consider will be born here.)

I will show up. I will look up. I will translate.

Thank you for reading, for looking, for being the person of awe you know you are and I know you are  as well. BRAVA current and future life companions, questors, creative business life artists.
