Charlene thinks we’ve lost track of what it means to really live. To live into all of what we are, who we are, all of what Life is. To know we are the deepest seas, the highest mountains, and as vast as the expansive blue sky. We are the smallest grains of sand, we are the drop and wave and the ocean. We are human. We are sacred. We are both…AND.
Some of us are called to climb mountains and roar in delight at the summit. Some of us feel the pull of a quiet nook, savoring the stillness of an early morn. Others are enchanted when holding a small child’s hand, or teaching them to bake cookies, or how to keep kindness in their hearts. Or more likely, we are mixture of them all. And more…
Our lives are made, moment by moment. These are Wild Blue Moments. And Charlene believes in them.
Believes that creating them and being aware of them, AS they occur is the key and the gift.
Cherishing the small and intimate, as well as the vast and momentous in our lives is what creates a Wild Blue Life. A life of presence and soul, of spaciousness and balance, of radiance and well being, of fullness and deep contentment, of simplicity in the complexity of All That Is.

When asked what The Meaning of Life was, the Dalai Lama answered “The meaning of life is happiness. That is easy! It is to be happy. Hard question is not, ‘What is meaning of life?’ That is easy question to answer! No, hard question is ‘what make happiness?’. Money? Big house? Accomplishment? Friends? Or …” He paused. “Compassion and good heart? This is question all human beings must try to answer:What make true happiness?”
So, what makes true happiness? That is YOUR Wild Blue…
Welcome to Wild Blue Living… I’m so honored to be a part of the question… a part of the dance along the journey…
Let’s enjoy the exploration of it, together.
