Last week we looked at our goals, and did a goal search. This week we are looking at our childhood, our colours, and more of our desires. On page 147 there is a quote by Dr. Joseph Murphy, "Your desire is your prayer. Picture your desire now and feel it's reality and you will experience the joy of the answered prayer." This is the teaching of "The Secret", of Wayne Dwyer, of Eckhart Tolle, and many other spiritual leaders. Our thoughts create our world.
- Task 2: New Childhood...What might you have been?
- Task 3: Colour Schemes...Pick a colour and write a few sentences describing yourself...
- Task 4: List five things you are not allowed to do.
- Task 5: Style Search...List twenty things you like to do.
* Mary Cassatt, "Mother and Child"

I came across this quote today, taken from Prayer by Sr. Joyce Rupp, O.S.M.:
Prayer is meant to "grow us." Every divine encounter holds the possibility of transforming us. Genuine prayer is risky. It changes us, and we are never sure what those changes might be. We may not initially be aware of the alterations within ourselves because these movements are often imperceptible, but each authentic prayer brings our truest self a bit more to the surface of life. This transformation includes discovering our preeminent virtues and our most dismal compulsions, our finest qualities and our most embarrassing traits.
I think this is exactly what The Artist's Way is aiming for.
