27 Days til Launch: The Story of Life

(Note: This post was written yesterday but I did not have access to send it until this morning.  My apologies.)

The GATE 3 Transformational Story Conference was packed with guest speakers, artists, producers, authors, playwrights, educators and founders of nonprofit organizations, many who shared valuable messages related to the greatest story of all--LIFE.  Recently I received a review from Astrid Witt, Innovative Educator, Speaker, Telesummitt Host, and Founder of What the Experts Know, as follows:  "....whether  you are teenager experiencing the awkwardness of first love, or an adult seeking to understand life, the Stelladaur: Finding Tir Na Nog will give life a whole new meaning."  Here are some of my favorite quotes from GATE 3 and from the novel, which support the idea that our lives are a story.  We write it.  We decide how we will live it.  We are here to remember the purpose of it.

GATE 3 - George Cappannelli - (Co-founder of AgeNation / Author-"Writing a New Third Act for Humanity")  "We need to reclaim the role of the visionary, the wise elderly...We must admit our human frailties...Honor lessons of history and honor the elderly..."

Stelladaur: Finding Tir Na Nog:  (Eilam)  "Age is a myth."

GATE 3 - Peter Canova - (Researcher / Author / Educator - "Awakening to Our Quantum Script: Humans as Avatars and Archetypes in a Cosmic Drama")  "Life isn't about finding yourself; life is about remembering.  Our true home is not here."

Stelladaur: Finding Tir Na Nog: (Great Grandpa Alistair) "Most everyone has a wish, but only some have a true greatest desire.  A wish becomes a greatest desire at the very moment when a person's belief in the seemingly impossible is stronger than any doubt."

GATE 3 - Catherine Anne Jones - (Award-winning playwright / screenwriter / author - "The Power of Story to Heal")  "All stories are a journey back to self.  Pain is meaningful to bring us to transformation."

Stelladaur: Finding Tir Na Nog: (Fiala) "Fear has a purpose if One's own fear bring One to the opposite of such.  Otherwise, fear empowers disbelief and consumes imagination, without which, no desire can be granted." 

David Korten - Author ("Religion, Science, and Integral Spirit: A Sacred Story for Our Time") "Time is Life.  Make time for life." 

Stelladaur: Finding Tir Na Nog: (Porfino) "There are no boundaries when you are still enough to give space.  Then awareness continually expands to include all."


On this day and in this moment of time, invest time in your most valuable treasure--LIFE.
