Snips

What you need, to generate the energy to pull yourself into your life and into the moment, is enthusiasm. Many of us don't have that enthusiasm to start with. We are swayed by our thoughts that repeat our inadequacies so that we don't even bother trying. It is said that the longest journeys starts with a single step. You have got to begin. How does one become enthusiastic? Well, most people are looking for something that is worthy of pouring their heart, soul, and passion into. Fear not. You don't have to look far. Glance around. Where are you in this moment? It doesn't matter. You can start to generate the enthusiasm you naturally have for living now, in this moment. In fact, that is the only time there is. You don't have to wait for the circumstance to line up to a more favorable position. You have the perfect circumstances for transformation, right now.
Ariel and Shya Kane



If we were to watch a weaver sewing a tapestry for only a few moments, and
focused on only a small piece of the work, it would not look beautiful. It would look like a few peculiar threads randomly placed. How often we use that same, limited perspective to look at our life - especially when we are going through a difficult time.
We can learn to have perspective when we are going through those confusing times. We can trust that something valuable is being worked out in us - even when things are difficult, even when we cannot get our bearings.
