New Beginnings

 Every new beginning you've experienced has led you to the person you are today. Rachel Astor

New beginnings can be exciting, particularly when it is a personal choice to  start over, to begin again. 

New beginnings provide an opportunity to make a fresh start, forge a new path.

How do you perceive new beginnings?

Life is impersonal. When the end of a relationship, job, situation or whatever it is has been reached, life will simply give us cues. We may feel a certain heaviness, our feelings become less joyful, our intuition tells us to take the next best new path.

Many times when we ignore life's cues and force to remain where we are, this is the genesis of suffering.

New beginnings does not mean giving up, it may mean surrendering to the notion that there is something different out there for you to do. 

New beginnings can build character, it allows us to see how much progress we have made and how much progress we still have to make,

Change is happening all around us, especially now, our challenge is to embrace new beginnings with faith, hope and self belief.

Peace

What Does Support Look Like to You?

Image
  You save yourself energy when you learn to ask people what they need, instead of assuming you know best then acting on your own impulses. Allowing people to define what support looks like gives you an ability to assess if you have the capacity to show up - Minaa B If someone asks you right now, what does support look like to you, what would be your answer? It takes self reflection , self awareness and more importantly a whole load of authenticity to answer. On the flip side, do you rush to support others without them even asking- there may be times when that is required, however many a time we assume that we know what others want and need. The times when we do assume, after a while a feeling of resentment builds because "how could they be so ungrateful?" or "why are they not seeing their need for my help?" the other classic is "they must need my help to show them because they clearly are not seeing that they need support" We continue to assume what othe

Sensible Optimism

  Optimism is usually defined as a belief that things will go well. But that's incomplete. Sensible optimism is a belief that the odds are in your favor, and over time things will balance out to a good outcome even if what happens in between is filled with misery. And in fact you  know  it will be filled with misery. You can be optimistic that the long-term growth trajectory is up and to the right, but equally sure that the road between now and then is filled with landmines, and always will be. Those two things are not mutually exclusive." Who told us that all the roads on the Journey of life will be smooth and bump free? And even if you knew or remember who told you, why did you believe it given what you know? What if the blessing, what if the growth, what if the joy is found on the rocky bumpy road? What if? And if it is, we can rest easier that the bumps and rocky roads are designed with us in mind, designed for us to grow, to learn, to live a life that is filled with varie
