In general we live our lives at a pace which means we
collect regrets like a squirrel gathers her nuts. Fleetingly we enjoy a moment
of pure joy, which, we suddenly value greatly, which causes us to reflect on
how we live our lives, if only momentarily.
But if we can’t or wont change, the “nuts” of regret get
heavier and disappointments can cling like grey sticky cobwebs around our
hearts. We feel pulled every which way, by a multitude of conflicting demands. We
often dish out our time, haphazardly to others resulting in someone always gets
short changed. We try and calm the rising feelings of fear and shame in our
minds by justifying the choices we have made and promising to make amends. But
somehow we loose our own arguments.
| Sunrise-good time to start afresh |
Be still now and think, stop and decide to make the best
choices you can and accept that you will try and do your best. If you really
are not trying hard enough, realise that it is in your own interests to do so.
If you honestly believe you are doing your best and making the best possible
choices, cut yourself some slack, do it now.
We cannot do more, we need to do less. We cannot wait until
tomorrow, to find a window for this and that. The time is now, for now is the
only time we have. Let’s make a choice that lets our hearts feel light and full
of love, not heavy and smothered in guilt.
