Thanks so much Open -

Onboarded your suggestion and found some much needed time to freewheel after a business meeting. I was shown unequivocally that I needed to leave my corporate career of 15 years several months ago, and have been agonizing over the HOW ever since. Intellect driven questioning like how to pay the mortgage and support my wife and children, with the underpinning of worthiness and Trust featuring heavily.

Drawn to a park called Echo Lake in a part of town I’d never been before. Walked around just following the Pull for an hour as the last vestiges of sunlight faded into a brilliant cold sunset.

In addition to tons of playful squirrel communication which had already been happening all day long, my attention kept getting spiked by a solo white duck on the lake - separate from several other coupled pairs but definitely the leader - who was determinedly submerging his head into the freezing water by the shoreline over and over - stirring up the muddy sediment to find nuggets of food.

Kept meandering and from the other side of the lake I noticed suddenly that all of the ducks were all exactly lining up from my vantage point - aligning and realigning themselves over and over into a straight line, with the white duck stationary at the top all the way on the other bank.

I knew this was a key part of my message but it didn’t fully drop at that point. Stayed open and looped around the lake again, and they started moving towards lining up again. Besides the definite support of my continued “digging in the mud,” the phrase suddenly landed and I cracked up laughing:

“Chill out - it’s OK to get your ducks in a row!”

They immediately all started quacking loudly in unison to let me know I’d finally gotten it.

Thanks for the space to share this.
