Marie T. Russell's Daily Inspiration
The focus for today is: I allow myself to explore each new moment with vulnerability, curiosity and fresh eyes.
Perhaps one of our greatest hindrances on the road of transformation and rebirth, is the expectation of "same-old, same old". In other words, we don't really expect things to change. We expect things to remain the same - whether we consider those things good or bad. However, transformation and rebirth, as well as life itself, by necessity require change, and at times, major changes.
Rebirth and transformation will become our way of life when we let go of old hurts, grudges and resentments, and other old stories that we may have become attached to... such as being a victim, powerless in certain circumstances, or feeling self-pity, etc. We must be open and vulnerable in order for the old to fall away and the new reality to come to fruition.
We must not only be open to change, but welcome it with open arms, even when it may not appear to be a welcome change. Let us welcome each day with the curiosity and new eyes of a child, always expecting wondrous experiences and blessings to come our way. This is how we are reborn to a new life, a new experience, and a new reality -- one where love, joy, acceptance and harmony are the prime movers. We then are born again, each day and each moment, to a new attitude of love for life and for all of humanity.
