Our InnerSelf welcomes your inner self.
Everything is connected. Whether we recognize the connections with other humans, with animals, with the past... it is all linked together. Our actions, past and present, as well as those of our ancestors, still resonate within us today. But we are not tied to, or restricted by, any of it... unless we choose to be, or allow it.
We can start anew from wherever we are, mentally, physically, emotionally, spiritually, and choose a new direction, a new path, a new energy. Nothing is permanent... everything, including us, is in flux... So, we can make new choices, see things differently, and create a future better than the one that seems to be in front of us. Let go of the past, choose your present, and thus create the future you perhaps haven't dared dream of yet.
