Hello In There!

As Alle (A Star Is Born) comes out of the back door of the place where she works, and throws out the garbage, she is dressed in her uniform, her job. She walks somewhat stiffly as she turns up the alley.  Then the transformation begins as you see her from the back, the hips beginning to swivel, the shoulders  to roll as if to express physically her sense of freedom.  She is becoming her passion, her Truer self, not her job, or her title.  She then raises her arms and spins around and shouts.  A Star is Being Born.  But it was always in her.  I think it is in all women.  They have titles and jobs, such as Mom or Lawyer, or Executive.  They dress and walk a certain stiff way.  I look at them and want to say, "Hello in there. When will you, the deep you, the passion of you, come out?"  It is not the passion of physical love, but the passion from the energy of your dreams, your hopes, your true, deep self, that is so often buried beneath responsibility, the wants and needs of others.  Remember the movie, "Frozen" where the ice queen, Elsa, walks about stiffly in the castle. She has responsibilities as queen of the realm.  She has fears. Then she runs away to avoid hurting people with her powers.  She climbs the snow mountain bent over walking slowly with her burden.  Then she decides to "Let It Go!" as the song begins.  Just be Elsa.  She stands up straight and begins to roll those shoulders and move those hips and become what was always inside of her.  Ultimately, she will have it all put together through an act of pure loving sacrifice.  But as part of the mix to becoming all we are supposed to be maybe we have to let it go once in a while.  God has your back.  Take the chance.
