Day 7- Newness.

I am new.

Now that we have worked on releasing things that are no longer helping us to create the life we want we have to really believe that we can start over.

It’s never too late to start fresh. We are the masters of our own destiny. We don’t always have control over what happens but we always have the power to decide how we deal with what happens. Ask yourself what you want and then allow yourself a new beginning and head in that direction. Don’t complicate things. It really is that simple.

Look at the painting of the Deva (spirit/light/consciousness) of the Ginger Lily. To me flowers are about newness. The blooms spring up new and fearless. Each individual bloom does not stay around long but it feels unashamed to show it’s true, beautiful, authentic self to the world. Follow the example of the Deva of the Ginger Lily and do the same. Smell the fragrance of your favorite flower and notice the affect that has on you.

Write 3 things that you are grateful for.

To be fully alive, fully human, and completely awake is to be continually thrown out of the nest. To live fully is to be always in no-man's-land, to experience each moment as completely new and fresh. To live is to be willing to die over and over again. – Pema Chodron
