Rebalancing Our Lives

Now that things have settled down a little, we have an opportunity to rebalance our life. We seem to have slowed down considerably from the last few days of rushing around. Now that the festivities have quieted down, we can use this time to begin preparing for the upcoming year. Reflecting not only on our unmet goals, but dreams that now may seem a little vague. It is time to create the life that we've envisioned during the coming new year. Today, see how quiet you can be. Listen to others, rather than speak about yourself. Be open to what comes to you, rather than scheduling every minute of your day. Be compassionate to those who you have difficulty understanding. Within the quiet, the universe will open up and bring you new perspective.


With beautiful sunrises like these, it's easy to greet each day with optimism...

(Pike's Market in Seattle is one of my favorite places to spend the day. If we don't make an effort to do the things that are important to us, life will pass us by without us noticing.)
