"A New Beginning" by Karen Casey
Goals give direction to our lives. But the trip itself, the steps we trael, offers us daily satisfaction moment by moment - the fulfilment, if we'd but realise it. Too often, we keep ours sights on the goal's completion, rather than the PROCESS - the day to day living that makes the completion possible.
How often do we think, " When I land that promotion, my troubles are over". Life will begin " WHEN" - or so it seems in our minds. And when this attitude controls our thinking, we pass up our opportunity to live, altogether.
How sad that the hours, the days, the weeks, may be even the months we toiled are now gone, with little sense of all the could have meant. To make gains in this life we must venture forth to new places, contact new people , chance new experiences. Even though we may be fearful of the new, we must go forward. It's comforting to remember that we never take any step alone. It is our destiny to experience many new beginnings. And a dimension of the growth process is to develop trust that each of these experiences will in time, comfort us.
Every new beginning is needed by our developing selves. We must let go of people, places, memories and move on to new experiences. The doors of the past must be closeed before we can enter those that are opening to us today. However, no experience is gone forever. All our experiences are threaded together, each one contributing to the events that claim our attention now !
