I am a work of art in progress. I am constantly becoming a new me. I am not the person I was a year ago, for she has grown, developed, made new choices, met new people, evolved, become more aware, changed her life style and will continue to grow by choice.
Life is not stagnant. We outgrow the sky child, the awkward teenager, the new bride, the single parent, struggling. I have lived these lifetimes and more. Life always offers us more and there are many more discoveries yet to come.
New adventures await daily. Life is not just a challenge, it is an adventure and we are the explorers, enjoy the process. Each day is a new beginning, greet it with anticipation for the secrets that will be revealed to us this day. It will not come again, so don't rush through it, but savor it instead.
Whatever conditions develop as the day progresses, these are our experiences, given to us to explore, to learn from, to grow through, to laugh or cry with. Be aware of the gifts of growth they bring.
Recognize the whole self you are and your potential. You are not a body and mind only but a spirit, an essence, a part of all life. Whatever we encounter contributes to our evolution, to our continuing change.
How we choose to react to what occurs in our life, and how we choose to perceive the events of our life make a great deal of difference in our development. Doesn't it make sense to do so in greater awareness? With more joy? To be an active participant?
We cannot always control what will happen, but we can choose to control how we react. We needn't wait to start living when all our perceived priorities have been fulfilled, that may never happen. While we're waiting, life is happening in the now. More money, time, better conditions are not going to change that. It only makes us miss the best we have while we are waiting for more.
Life is not to postpone, but to own.
