The Kitchen Sink of Your Soul
The kitchen sink is your cosmic portal, your secret doorway to a magical mastery of the space-time continuum, the nexus of colliding paradigms and the control panel of the intergalactic space pod, better known as your life.
So profound is this sacred place that most dare not approach it, except for surreptitiously placing offerings at its mouth-like abyss.
The prayer that is secretly made while giving up the remnants of our daily meals is; that this hallowed whirlpool will mysteriously dissolve and consume those things we cannot bare to deal with.
And although the cleansing waters cascading from your celestial boiler can wash away many of the little problems and difficulties of your life, nonetheless it is the bigger pieces of hidden emotional onions, carrots and bits of unrecognisable plastic, which wont just go away with a little bit of positive thinking and personal effectiveness training.
The reason why you have this blockage is because in your complete and sublime surrender to the yearnings of your entrepreneurial soul, the small, mundane and trivial stuff that is beneath you has been ignored. You have not dealt with the junk that you would have been wiser to scrape off your plate before you put them in the sink.
Things like; dealing with your ever-increasing stress, your virtually non-existent relationship and home-life, making sure you’ve got pairs of socks, a life plan, discovering what the meaning and purpose of your life are, or putting off your health concerns because you’ve got “more important things to do”, like running your business, making money and taking over the world.
But it’s these relatively small niggly and often overlooked things that can come back to bite you. These underlying issues contribute to a general build up of spiritual grease, muck and slime that are the cause of the blockage in the kitchen sink of your life.
So, roll up your sleeves, don your Marigolds and bask in the cleansing light of this sublime everyday therapy.
