Keeping The Momentum Going


As we take the first step into the canvas, embracing change, we pause for a moment…contemplating our next steps. That moment is equally crucial as the first step. It is in these moment we look out to our future…contemplating where our direction.

Today I took another step into the Canvas of Life. Not knowing my own heading in life, but a strong desire to write and help others find their voice within. Today was a treat…as I was asked to be on the Air of At Issue With Ben Merens. We discussed “Living a Syncrosensational Life.” Taking another step, I must reflect on my own lessons…keeping the momentum going…as Ben Merens says, “So it goes.”

Pause for a moment, thinking about where we have been or have gone. May we look to our future with brighter eyes and pure heart, allowing the next steps to freely flow. Take the next step…soon you will be taking others, arriving in a place of bliss.

Reaching out to someone, can ease the burden of taking the first step. Reach out to someone whom you can trust, engaging them into your journey, and allowing them to be  a sounding board or someone to lean on when things get don’t go as planned.

Moving forward, may we face the dark. As we take the first step, contemplating our next, darkened forces throws everything it has to keep you in a place of complacency…stay the course. We have been conditioned long enough and it is time for change. If we continue to subscribe to that which we have learned, then we will remain where we have always been. It is time for change.

Stepping into the canvas as a new day. Today is the day, so get on your way…your life is about to change. Take the first step, contemplate the next and confidently walk forward into a new beginning… A new reality. The days of old have gone, the days of new are here…Step into the Canvas…painting as you see fit.

Tapping The Maple At The Right Time

This year was an unseasonable year…according to the weather man. With temperatures warmer than past years and very little snow, maple harvesters had a difficult time with harvesting the golden nectar. Trying to time the harvest…they missed its peak.

 

Tapping the trees to early can cause damage to them if the weather decides to freeze. Because of their fear, maple harvesting was cut in half. It is said that once buds start to show upon the trees, harvesting the syrup only yields bitter nectar. The sweetness comes prior to tree budding. Due to the increased warm weather and the fear of harming our trees, we are left with very little golden nectar.

 

Just as in life, we are ruled by the realities of our fears. Living in fear, we remain afraid of going beyond our comfort zone. If the maple harvesters would have just applied the basic laws of nature, their harvest would have been filled. Because they applied fear and not hope, they got very little this past harvest.

 

Was there ever a time in your life, when you were afraid to step out of your comfort zone? Was there ever a time, when you were afraid to do something different? Step out of the ordinary and into the extraordinary…the time is now.

 

Stepping into the Canvas with hope. Letting go of fear, we adopt a new faith-based reality…one of hope. With hope, we can do all things…no barriers! Stretching beyond our reality, we create a new one. Within or new reality we find endless possibilities. Within  endless possibilities, we find new realities. Just as my dear friend Ben Merens reminds me…the only thing constant is change. Those willing to embrace change…live a happy life of change. Those who fight it remain in their own fear…never ever experiencing the possibility of change…
