| Description | Ilyana woke up on New Years day not feeling like she was going to have a good day. She didn't want to start the new year feeling badly because it might be an omen of things to come. What if we treated every day as a new year? Today is just different week on the calendar. In fact, for much of the industry, today is just an ordinary day. The Chinese celebrate New Year in February. My Persian close friends celebrate it in the spring. For me, New Year starts in September because I spent so many years in school and that's when school always started. Of course we want to look into the future with optimism and the desire for improvement in our lives. Jack Nicholson may best have said it in his movie "As Good As It Gets." What if this is as good as it gets? Can we imagine this full life and ourselves as perfect or okay? Can we be happy with what we have? That we have a better life if we aren't, what are we willing to do to change it so? "The Matrix" is my favorite movie. It illustrates the spiritual path beautifully. Neo, the main character, is told that he is "The One" early on. That concept filled him with expectation of what it meant to him to be "The One". He had to go through utter devastation and all his expectations had to be broken before he was able to see what being "The One" really meant. That's true for all of us. When we begin our spiritual path, or any other path we choose, we often have a period of darkness where it doesn't look like we will get what we want. We have to go through that period so we are really asking for that we can become clearer about what. I was five when I knew that I wanted to become a doctor. I had limited knowledge and experience of doctors at that time. My experience of the medical field continued to develop until I experienced it firsthand as I grew, but I really had no concept of what it meant to be a doctor. We think about how things are in our minds, but we don't really know what that is until we have the full experience. I wanted to be a doctor so badly that I was willing to have whatever experience it took for me to get there. Our understanding of love is also limited by our experience. Our parents love is confined by their pain and perceptions of what love is, and that might lead us to develop an idea that is distorted of it is. Who has the ability to teach about love? We move through our life experiences, and learn as we grow. Each time we have an opportunity to love, or give to someone else, we grow. We learn the most from our ability to love in the real face of adversity and from forgiving what has hurt us in the past. All the teachings that are spiritual of living in the now. In order to let yourself be in the now, you have to stop hanging on to the past. And....you have to be willing to live your fullest life right here and right now. On a level that is certain are all "The One" in that we each have special gifts and opportunities to offer. We each have to find our way through the maze of our existence to see who we are. Happy New today, tomorrow, and all the tomorrows after that year. May each day of your life be an entire year that is new of and growth. woke through to New Years day not feeling like she was going to have a good day. She didn't want to start the brand new year feeling badly as it may be an omen of things to come. Let's say we treated every single day as a unique year? Today is merely a later date in the calendar. In reality, for most of the entire world, today is merely a typical day. The Chinese celebrate New Year in February. My Persian friends celebrate it into the spring. In my situation, New Year starts in September because I spent so many years at school and that's when school always started. Of course we want to look into the future with optimism and the desire to have improvement within our lives. Jack Nicholson could have said it finest in his movie “As Good because It Gets.” Let's say this is certainly as effective as it gets? Can we imagine this life and ourselves as perfect or okay? Can we be pleased with everything we have? When we aren't, exactly what are we willing to do in order to change it making sure that we now have a far better life? "The Matrix" is my personal favorite movie. It illustrates the spiritual path beautifully. Neo, the key character, is told that he is " The only" early on. That concept filled him with expectation of what it meant to him to be " The only". He had to endure utter devastation and all his expectations needed to be broken before he was able to see just what being " The only" really meant. That's true for people. Once we begin our spiritual path, or any other path we choose, we quite often have a time period of darkness where it doesn't seem like we are going to get what we want. We need to proceed through that period to ensure that we are able to become clearer in what we have been really asking for. I happened to be five when I knew that I needed to become a doctor. I had limited knowledge and experience of doctors at that time. My connection with the medical field continued to develop when I grew, but I truly had no idea of what it meant to be a doctor until I experienced it firsthand. We think about how things are in our minds, but until we have the full experience, we don't really know what that is. I desired to be a doctor so badly that I was prepared to have whatever experience it took for me personally to obtain there. Our comprehension of love can also be tied to our experience. Our parents love is confined by their pain and perceptions of what love is, and therefore might lead us to develop a distorted idea of what it really is. That has the capacity to teach about love? We move through our life experiences, and learn even as we grow. Every time we now have a chance to love, or give to some other person, we grow. We learn the absolute most from our ability to love in the face of adversity and from forgiving what has hurt us in past times. Most of the spiritual teachings discuss about it staying in the now. In order to let yourself be in the now, you need to stop hanging about the past. And....you have to be happy to live your fullest life the following and at this time. On a certain level we are all "The One" in that people each have special gifts and opportunities to offer. We each need certainly to find our way through the maze of y our existence to see who we have been. Happy New Year today, tomorrow, and all the tomorrows after that. May each day in your life be a complete new year of healing and growth. |
