Our New Boat Name

While back we named about boat the White Whale, but the name did not sit with us well. In the marine world the families are being known, not by the owners first or last name but they are known as thier boat name. So as you can see choosing a name is very important, it represents our personality, and who we become. The new name aslo reflects another chapter in our lives, just like a native indian would name oneself with a meaningful to him/her vision.  Therefore we knew that white whale did not have a meaning to us, but we did not know which name to pick. I came up with million names, kept repeating them over and over to see if it rings a bell and nothing. Chris rejected them ALL. He also came up with names that I did not like. We agreed on one thing, it had to represent spiritual journey, and surreal beautiful energy. It had to be one word, and have a flow to it. It took months to come up with names, and finally I gave up and said, the name is already there, I can feel it, it just needs to appear! And I moved on. Weeks later I was lying in bed with silent mind, I just finishes listening to Mozart, my mind was empty, as I was approaching my departure to sleep. Suddenly an energy came over my head in one instance I opened my eyes and called Chris in panic, that I got it. It came in a split second, and I knew that it was a name very well known to me. 

I have a pen name that I use for my spiritual work for many years. My book is written under this name, I identify myself with this pen name, it is extremely compelling, surreal, and it has all the qualities that Chris and I were looking for. SO, I opened my eyes, called Chris, and said, This name was with me all along but know it will include all of us.  How meaningful, we will all be on the same spiritual journey, as that is what my goal has become. 

I was going to start packing in January and we are almost in May and I am just beginning to think about my strategy for this. I have staff everywhere in the house ready to find new homes, boxes full of things, I don’t even put anything away. All I do is think about which paintings I will keep and how the heck can I fit them in the boat. Well I do have a nice set of spoons and forks, and few good shoes, those will be hard to part with.  Reevaluating material things helps me to recognize that there is nothing else left to do, but to move on this way. Everything involved in this transition is part of our spiritual evolution.
