Well I am here in Toronto. I arrived late last night after a relaxing trip on the train. I was by myself for five hours. Thats alot of time to think. I thought about what my client Lucie had said to me just a few hours before that we must live in the present. I agree with her whole heartedly but it is not always easy. I am who I am because of what was before and I am doing what I am doing to get what I am working for. But to live in the now really NOW. I am happy to say that I do it every day. Yes with my chosen career I have no choice. I am a hairstylist. When I am consulting with my clients, looking them in the eye and finding out there likes, dislikes and sharing with them what I recommend, I am very much in the now and it is a very exilerating place to be. As I cut their hair I am 100% present all the minusia of the day at that moment is gone. Once the cut or style is done I get an immediate response. When I see the shine in their eyes that I HEARD them and created the image that they desired I can't tell you how that makes me feel. Well I can try, I would say it is Bliss in the most spiritual sense. There is a connection that is so basic that in its essence is TRUTH. I hope that all hairstylist take advantage of this wonderful career that can only be done in the NOW. Don't be afraid of it embrace it.
