Blue Skies Ahead

Over the last few weeks, at a number of gatherings amongst friends I have been surprised (and delighted) by how many times Mondo Beyondo came up in conversations.

That's on my Mondo Beyondo List.

Since I've taken Mondo Beyondo, it's been one adventure after the next.

Have you taken Mondo Beyondo yet? You really should!

I think I'll make that a Mondo Beyondo.

It's like a household, mainstream phrase now. Even still I though since this was coming from friends that I have gotten to know on the web, maybe it shouldn't be that surprising. Maybe it's that we travel in small circles.

The small cirlce theory got blown out of the water when I went over to a friends house (who isn't active on the web and is someone I have been close with since college) and her daughter had Mondo Beyondo artwork a la Jen Lemen spread out all over the floor, making a dream journal in tween-collage style. I was stopped in my tracks! It was the strangest feeling...like my two worlds were colliding in the best possible way. And it was all happening in the name of dreaming big. What could be better than that?

And as synchronicity would have it, the amazing Jen Lemen is celebrating her 42nd birthday today (Happy Birthday dear friend!)by giving us a gift! A chance to experience the magic of the Mondo Beyondo Fall Dream Lab for only $42. Sisters, that is a big savings and well well worth the opportunity to dream big! The offer is only good until midnight tonight (Oct 6th) so make your move!

When I think Mondo Beyondo, I think the sky is the limit, and even the sky might be too limiting. I think of taking it to another stratosphere where anything is possible and dreams most certainly come true. A place where the blue skies ahead, keep getting bluer.

So, what are you waiting for? Now's your chance to get in on the magic of Mondo Beyondo at a fantastic deal.

Share today images that remind us that when it comes to dreams, bigger, wider, more vast and expansive is much much better!

I love that kind of synchronicity! Here's my photo - I could explain why it feels like expansive dreams to me, but I'll just let it do its own talking - http://www.flickr.com/photos/shorelinesphotography/5050038328/

Ever imagine what big dreams might look like from a worm's point-of-view? I think this might be it:

I like how you can fill in what the surroundings might look like with your imagination:

I love how, as artists, we learn to both see the world around us and also make connections in what we see - that's what it sounds like you are doing!

Here is one of a wide open space that feels expansive, to go along with my internal feelings:

What a wonderful story! I don't know Mondo Beyondo, but perhaps I should.

I see infinite possibilities here:

I have this thing about flying. I love it! Even though I'm stuck in a bus in the sky, I still feel free.

Mondo Beyondo changed everything for me. I've been so busy entertaining my dreams, I didn't have time for the first dream lab. I'd love to see what its all about.
