What you deny will arise. What you exclude will intrude. What you turn from will return. What you ignore will find you. All is needed, all is meaningful. Do not let judgments rule nor turn always outward for distraction but go inward and see what’s there instead. It’s all you’ll ever need to be productive and fulfilled in life. Even though the inward journey may be painful at times it is also the golden road to true contentment and transformation. Do you dare to take it? Your next step can take you there. It’s up to you. It’s all about knowing the self, one step at a time!

Where is your energy going? Where are you putting your attention? Is it focused on something important or is it being wasted on something useless and perhaps even damaging to your wholeness? Times of change call for many simultaneous changes, inside and outside. Times of change call for individual participation on the deepest level. Let outer change happen on its own but make inner change your priority. It’s the only real way to make anything better. Begin with you. Because it’s time now.

How long does it take, how many experiences before real change happens? “As long as it takes,” is the answer. In the process you get to learn about yourself, especially if you value every moment and take in every lesson as meaningful, if you tell yourself every day that the long road to change is a good road to be on, for in reality you are growing and changing all the time even though you may think you are traveling at a snail’s pace. Remember, even a snail will eventually arrive at a new place!

New beginnings can occur at any time, by intention, through ritual, spontaneously through nature or forced by firm conviction. A new beginning is an opportunity to move on, to take up life in a new direction, with new companions perhaps, with new purpose. New beginnings can be small and meaningful to the inner self alone or large and outwardly noticeable to the world around you, but the real significance of new beginnings is that they further you along on your personal journey of change and transformation because, really, that’s what it’s all about!

Without blame make your way through life. Hold yourself accountable for all actions, decisions and choices, for it is you alone, or some part of you, that has gotten you where you are today, whether in a great spot or in a not so great spot. With such blameless accountability firmly owned you may now move on into a new phase, firmly secure in knowing that you really are in charge, as sure of change as you are of the phases of the moon; some nights it shines brightly and on others it is dark. So are the phases of life both light and dark. Things always change and that is good!
