Have You Lost Your "Muchness"?

Are you "not so much"? Are you no longer "all that and a bag of chips"? Has your "get up and go"..."got up and went"?
Just Saw "Alice in Wonderland". A central question was "Is this the real Alice?" She looked like Alice - a bit older; she sounded like Alice but she didn't act like Alice.
This Alice wasn't as curious, wasn't as believing (I'll wake up soon) and wasn't as adventurous. Society and its rules had caused her to conform - had begun to tame her spirit.
The Hatter said she was Alice, but not much. She had lost her "muchness".
So again, have you lost your "muchness" Are you no longer the real you? Have you settled and let "society" make all the rules and bend you to them? Do you no longer ask questions out of curiosity? Have you kept growing but stopped learning and doing? (Some would question whether you can grow if you stop learning.)
Have you buried the dream or placed it in the back of the top shelf in the closet. Are you afraid to "slay the Jaberwocky" or whatever your dragon is? You don't want to be the Champion?!?
Life is about love and championing causes. Something - a person or a cause or a value - beyond just you. A cause that inspires you; something that will drive you long after you've become prosperous. A cause you can create legacy around. An adventure where you think of at least "6 impossible things a day". Your "muchness".
When Alice woke from her dream, she saw her world in a different way. The resources (people and opportunity) had existed in her reality but she had been too blinded by rules and roles to see it. It was all within her reach. To be sure, there would be scars and scares but the dream was worth it all.
Is it time to be the champion again? To break out of your shell. To soar like the butterfly and not crawl like the caterpillar. To be free and smile like the Cheshire Cat!!
Go get back your "muchness" and be "all that and a bag of chips"!
