I noticed it this morning as it called to me from outside my window once again. The unusual phenomenon has stalked me ever since I scribed the following words in my notebook this morning, "Clouds so dense a knife could cut through them."

The haggard elm tree in my back yard is illuminated as if from a stage light. It is a beacon contained in dried up bark, looking like a sapless, leafless wonder. It glows in satisfaction, a solitary light in a dungeon of a murky, gray day.

This stalker is not stationary nor is it imbued only in my backyard elm. I saw it in my neighbors Oak tree as I tried, albeit poorly, to carry on a telephone conversation.

Once again it appeared in the timid rainbow which stretched across the sky, begging me to harness its appearance in words.

Glowing, orb-like, fire, reflective, embers, radiant, mirror.

A moment of truth within the sometimes foggy journey, a marker that says "Keep going, you're almost there!" like the ubiquitous road side markers beckoning you to "Eat at Mel's Diner only 287 miles to go!" and another with "only 249 miles to go" "only 178 to go" "only 121 to go" "only 42" "only 4" "only 2" all the way to the destination which guide hungry travelers to a warm and hopefully tasty meal.

If you are not hungry, you don't notice the signs.

Just like if I wasn't alert to life, I wouldn't notice the beckoning from my tree, the neighbor's tree, the rainbow and who-knows-where-it-will-show-next?

What is intriguing me today is this: as I allow myself to "be stalked" by this beckoning light I see in surprising places, I also allow myself to grow beyond my current place of comfort: my "normal for this moment."

I am dealing with some pretty uncomfortable stuff right now.

In that uncomfortable stuff I remain incredibly optimistic for several reasons. I trust the light I see in the tree, in the rainbow, in my backyard. I trust that the feeling, the experience, the noticing that I can't even put into words very fully is where the truth lies. It doesn't live in the vague " and occasionally not so vague " fright which most closely resembles a bird of prey circling and swooping, circling and swooping, circling and swooping.

If I stayed inside the confines of the house, I would never experience that circling-swooping bird.

If you stay inside the confines of anything for too long, you will become stuck. You will soon block out the vision of the light, not feel the glow and disengage from anything except being stuck.

Let's check in for a moment.

As you read these words, you may feel a tug at your heart. You might remember a time when you saw something you can't quite put into words which called to you. You might just notice an unnamed physical emptiness. You might know what those circling, swooping birds smell like or the panic which sets in as you see one heading towards you.

The good news is this: it's simple to move beyond the "being inside the stuck" place. The even better news is you can start today by following these simple steps.

1. Pursue a practice or ritual which fills you with passion, even if at first you are not sure what or why or how or even if you desire to do that practice or ritual. Without trying it on over several days you will never know. Notice when my glowing, evocative experience began? AFTER I wrote in my morning pages "Clouds so dense a knife could cut through them."

2. Stretch beyond your abilities every day so that you become comfortable with being a little uncomfortable with the intent to feel absolutely incredible as a result.

3. Follow your glow, the light in the midst of the darkness, the rhythmic beckoning call to whatever and wherever it goes without concerning yourself with "the details". Those details will come as you continue with repeating steps 1 and 2.

Welcome to the light.

Now step in and follow.
