Duality Exercise#4: Outer Genius

To fashion a tribute to the genius within each one of us, we will need to search our memory for anything we thought or someone mentioned as special about us. It doesn’t have to be specific and we don’t have to agree. Just take that factor and choose something we always want to change about our self whether or not another agreed with us. Take something to represent a literal small token of each of these aspects or remembered stories. Choose an object, an expression written on a surface or a little sketch. Literally bind these pieces together. Use thread or some other filament. Think of this as an ornament. Go and hang it up somewhere in the world. Select a place of attention or a least traveled path. Leave the ornament there, and see when it comes into awareness. It marks a path of alchemical genius. After all who says whether what others value and what we fail to value holds true importance in the universe. Sometimes we hope so; sometimes we definitely hope not. Make margin notes on this process throughout a year. Marriages take time to transform.
