Finding what's important
Our priorities are mixed up.
We go to war to create peace. We create distance to maintain closeness.
We resist change as if we could stop it. We FEAR what life may bring, without ever understanding that we are the bringer. Take a breath and begin again to work from the inside out-where things are infinitely clearer and where spirit can be heard.
Yours, that is.
I've come to a place where I'm beginning to put my priorities back in line. A place where I can really see what I'm looking for and look for the best way to get there. Once we can see our goals in front of us, it helps us determine what's really important and what's not.
Sometimes things that aren't important jump in front of those that are, and for whatever reason at the time, we allow this to happen.
The winds of change are blowing my way, and instead of putting my back to the winds, I turn my face to them, and with open arms accept them. The concept of new year's resolutions baffles me...why can't we promise ourselves to make the changes that we want to make at any time? Maybe it's because we think that we are wiping the slate clean at new year. I believe that we can wipe the slate clean at any time we choose. Once you've made a promise to yourself, start right then to make it happen.
It's your life, and you choose everyday to make it better, or you choose not to. No one can make those choices for you, and that's the beauty of it. You can no longer blame someone else for your failures, you can only blame yourself for not having the courage to make those decisions and then stand by them.
It's your decision.
