Life Coach

The other night I was watching one of my fav reality shows on Bravo (yes, I'm a junkie) and during the show, they had the main person meet with a Life Coach to help her figure out who she really is and what she really wants from this "process." I was suddenly captured by the idea that here in the USofA we are so aware of our rights and our individuality and yet we can't decide what we want and we have no concept of our true selves. We're so clueless of our disconnection. What irony: I want what I want when I want it and to be the first to have it yet I don't know what it is... I need somebody to tell me. I hope this doesn't offend anyone who subscribes to this notion of using a Life Coach -- I guess it's kind of like secular spiritual direction -- I was just intrigued.

it's funny, because i've been sitting here all empty and crap, wondering what i will do when it's time to start filling all this empty with something...what do I WANT?... when it dawned on me that all the while i was full of my own stuff, i was begging God to help me get out of the way and make room for "more of Him, less of me".
Now i have a chace for some of that, and i'm first wondering what "I" want. typical. =)
