I'm told the alternative to surgery is 'leave the fibroids alone' and try to conceive. Pursue some holistic therapies like acupuncture and traditional chinese herbal medicine (they can't hurt.) Fibroids are inherently benign but can grow so big that side effects become really inconvenient...

So the last two weeks have found me mentally flipping a coin and watching it land on its edge - surgery, no surgery; try to conceive, adopt. It's been a great exercise in embracing chaos, and learning to love not knowing what to do. If you guessed there's lots more quiet time, meditating and just napping in my life right now, you'd be right. And lots of thinking about what's to happen next.

Perhaps the coin landing on its edge means 'yes to all.' Which is where I'm at for the moment. Yes to acupuncture, yes to surgery, yes to conceiving and yes to adoption. Let the arms of the Universe support me in all ways...receive, receive, receive.

So that's it in a nutshell. Thanks for your anticipated well-wishes which I won't see until I'm back in a week. The people who support me so much every day in business and life command me to be email free, so I shall. :-)

Once I'm back I'll decide in what ways to further streamline and automate work...and proceed with some juicy no-pressure writing projects. Existing client work will joyfully continue uninterrupted as will the teaching commitments and joint ventures I'm in the thick of...just nothing much new for a touch.

And...lest you be worried, let me assure you - no this won't be turning into a fertility blog although I'm sure my writing will take on some of these new flavors in the pursuit of money and meaning transparently with your company. My goal is to remain as useful and enjoyable as ever!

Here's a tip for those times in your life when you too may be embracing some sort of chaos: try Pema Chodron's 'Comfortable with Uncertainty.' She is a true gift for ordinary times and upside down times both.
