“There is nothing unworthy of acceptance. The door that sticks, the rash that won’t go away, the neighbors loud music – all of it is here whether we like it or not. But their power over us is only commensurate with our resistance. when we stop resisting, we’re free to expand. Once expanded, we have infinite resources to change our situation.” ~ Howard Raphael Cushnir

For A New Beginning ~ “In out of the way places of the heart Where your thoughts never think to wander This beginning has been quietly forming Waiting until you were ready to emerge. For a long time it has watched your desire Feeling the emptiness grow inside you Noticing how you willed yourself on Still unable to leave what you had outgrown. It watched you play with the seduction of safety And the gray promises that sameness whispered Heard the waves of turmoil rise and relent Wondered would you always live like this. Then the delight, when your courage kindled, And out you stepped onto new ground, Your eyes young again with energy and dream A path of plenitude opening before you. Though your destination is not clear You can trust the promise of this opening; Unfurl yourself into the grace of beginning That is one with your life’s desire. Awaken your spirit to adventure Hold nothing back, learn to find ease in risk Soon you will be home in a new rhythm For your soul senses the world that awaits you.” ~by John O’ Donohue
