JC leads a morning check-in reflecting on grief, shifting perspectives and permission to feel, using Joni Mitchell's cloud imagery to illustrate how inner change alters how we see the outside world.
JC: Good morning, Cadre. How are you? I saw my friend Dr. Charisse was live a little bit ago. And then Dr. Evan Lieberman from Australia is going to be going live in a couple of hours. There's always a really wonderful opportunity to check in here on the Cadre sphere for whatever you need.
Every single day of the week, you have an opportunity to shape a perspective. And of course, you need to give yourself a little bit of permission to understand that that is going to change. It reminds us that something is changing inside of us that changes our way to see what's happening outside of us.
Well, hey there. Good morning, Cadre. How are you? I hope you are swell. I saw my friend Dr. Charisse was live a little bit ago. And then Dr. Evan Lieberman from Australia is going to be going live in a couple of hours. There's always a really wonderful opportunity to go ahead and check in here on the Cadre sphere for whatever you need. If we haven't shared time and space together before, my name is JC thanks for letting me spend some time with you. It is a gift, no matter how you are doing, it is always a gift to have your energy, your perspective in your fight right here, right now.
So on Fridays, we often talk about grief and loss in the live streams. One of those things that we never plan for, we never prepare for, but when it presents, it's a thing. And it's one of those human things that we experience. But you know, I think every single day of the week, no matter what the topic is, no matter who the person is, you have an opportunity to shape a perspective, to shape a perspective on what you're hearing and what you're experiencing on the outside. And of course, you need to give yourself a little bit of permission to understand that that is going to change no matter what's going on on the inside.
So a little tune for you this morning. Boughs and flows of angel hair and ice cream castles in the air and feather canyons everywhere. I've looked at clouds that way but now they only block the sun. They rain and snow on everyone. So many things I would have done but clouds got in the way. I've looked at clouds from both sides now, from up and down and still somehow it's cloud illusions. I recall. I really don't know clouds at all. A little Joni Mitchell, who starts by saying, hey, clouds spur on my imagination.
They create an opportunity to dream, to see something beautiful, to see something natural. And then in a moment, it shifts. Those clouds block the perspective. It blocks the pathway, blocks the hope, the light. And Joni goes, pfft. I don't know anything. But I think this is a song of liberation, a song of going, huh? I don't know anything in its concreteness, in its foreverness. But I do, within this moment, have the capacity to go, huh? I'm happy, I'm sad. I see light, I see darkness, I see hope.
I am hopeless. And I know that that's probably going to change every single time we have the opportunity to see another perspective. It reminds us that something is changing inside of us that changes our way to see what's happening outside of us. That may not seem like the most like, ah, golden or like inspiration, but it does give you permission to feel what you're feeling when you're feeling it. And that is what we do here. When you have a craving, jump into Cadre or brings you back to a perspective you've had in the past, and then all of a sudden you realize you don't really know anything at all in its concreteness and it's forever because it always feels good.
