ThroughTheGateOfFear : 51X62" Watercolor, Roplex and Kaolin Clay on canvasThere were four of us there, my dark brother, a woman I love and a fourth who was somehow always out of site but I felt them there. The fourth one seemed to be in charge and took turns speaking through the three of us. We were standing outside of a wooded park like area that was surrounded by a tall fence with razor wire strung along the top edge. There was a gate through the fence and a phone by the gate with the number posted to contact the gatekeeper. We had to move something rather large through the gate, something that would change something fundamental, but somehow I knew those who controlled the other side of the fence would not have approved the plan and there was the threat of getting caught. What we needed to do had to be done with their cooperation but without revealing the final plan and outcome.  When I knew it was me that had to take the action to pick up the phone, dial and convince the gatekeeper I was overwhelmed with fear. I stepped back from the gate, back to this place I have been many times already where the fear generates the reasons why not and after a while you even forget that you stood here at all, that you had a choice. But this time I was flooded with the purpose and when I became clear in my purpose I reached for the phone. It rang before I picked it up. The seven AM alarm clock, time to get up and go to work. Make more money to keep it all afloat. But I remembered I am standing outside of the gate.
