<p>Have you ever had the deep desire to live out your purpose, but when your path takes an unexpected turn, you&#8217;re not so sure anymore?  I&#8217;ve tended to feel bad about myself because I keep asking for my purpose and for my path to be made clear, but when the same theme keeps hounding me, I still want to deny it because it doesn&#8217;t fit my pictures of what my work is supposed to be!  I&#8217;ve written posts about this before &#8211; and its back again.  Hounding me.  Making me pay attention.  God telling me, &#8216;this is it, this is what you&#8217;ve asked for.&#8217;   And what is it that I&#8217;m fighting?  Sparkling.  Sparkles.  Light, bright, shiny, happy-making.  And I&#8217;m saying &#8216;no.&#8217;  It&#8217;s not professional enough!!!!  But apparently, sparkling is meant to happen and I am meant to help.  Somehow.  We&#8217;ll see&#8230;.</p>
<p>Will I be able to withstand the slings and arrows of people who think sparkle is too silly to consider?  Perhaps I&#8217;ll have to put on some Sparkle Power armor &#8211; and remind myself that this was God&#8217;s idea, not necessarily mine!</p>
<p>On the other hand, I could think of how much magic can be created when women let themselves bring their sparkle into the &#8216;game.&#8217;  Bringing sparkle in to &#8216;serious&#8217; matters &#8211; like businesses or finances, what transformations could result?</p>

<p><strong>What in the world do you mean by sparkle?</strong></p>
<p>Sparkle is zest, aliveness, lightness, joy, magic.  Sparkle lights things up.  It&#8217;s an impetus&#8230;it lights the pilot light.  Sparkle is, pretty much, infectious. Sparkle is faith, hope, trust, love, enthusiasm, the Light of God rekindling our inner sparkle.  Those are some of the ways I mean sparkle.</p>
<p>Almost every woman I know &#8211; and a lot of men, too &#8211; smiles when she hears the word &#8216;sparkle.&#8217;  That says something to me.  They remember sparkle&#8230;and it delights them.  Now when you&#8217;re with someone who is delighted, what happens?  Magic, my friends!  Magic!</p>
<p><strong>What does sparkle mean to you?</strong></p>
<p>Sparkle has been underrated!</p>

<p>I&#8217;ve just returned from Kendall SummerHawk&#8217;s Money, Market, and Soul Intensive.   As is so often the case, you get insights during the course, but the course may just be planting the seeds.   At least that&#8217;s the case for me, here.   I&#8217;ve been using the starter phrase &#8220;What would it be like if&#8230;&#8221;  to give myself some different perspectives.  Sometimes, I get so focused on my small thinking, it&#8217;s like I&#8217;m sticking my head down a hole.  So, I&#8217;m asking what it would be like to have the things I think I&#8217;d love to have:  What would it be like to feel 100% valuable, whole, and complete?   What would it be like to feel like a successful strategist (something I think I&#8217;m not good at)?  What would it be like to have faith in myself?</p>
<p>What would it be like to have faith in myself.   I was surprised about how easily the answers started flowing for that one&#8230;bottom line, I would be more of who I most want to be.  I think that&#8217;s so cool.</p>
<p>This is such a time of transition and this feels good.  Is this part of being a Lightworker?  A cultural creative?  </p>
