What is it that I have to tell myself again and again?
That there is always a new beginning, a different end.
I can change the story.
I am the story.
Begin.

Looking for the love button, pal! The sentiment, the photo, everything is just perfect!!
Yes Amen. Keep moving 😉

Nailed it…and yet, if we paused to realize that every action we take is a choice, it might seem paralytic. Better to just marvel – and with a resounding ‘yes!) – begin.
Great strategy, mindlessly plow ahead!
It’s a skill…😉
No kidding!
I love this! So true. We are the authors of our own life.
Me too Darlene. Thanks!
Thank you.
Hopeful, right? Love this, David.
Right!
Love,love,love this!
Great!
That’s so cute. You just know she’s having a good conversation with the bear.
I know! You can hear her whispering…
“Again and again and again; return to the heart; follow now, the Golden Fleece; wake up to who you are, now, play your part; live at last a life of peace.” (from Lose Your Mind [and come to your senses]) on the cd You Are the Diamond, by Carole Isis 😉
Love this! Thank you.
