Happy New Year!
I did it again.
Why do we make New Year Resolutions that only last a day, a week or if you are lucky two or three weeks? It is just another day but we make up all these empty promises; break them then feel bad. I say it’s a setup for a letdown.
I say just do – show them instead of tell them.
Think; if you will for a moment about the Butterfly. It starts off as a worm – no I am not calling myself a worm (smile). It starts off as a caterpillar and develops this hard exterior forming a cocoon. It is alone, still on the inside preparing for the outward change; it goes through a metamorphosis. When it transforms from one state of being into another it has to push and push until it breaks through the cocoon; the old stuff basically being born again. It emerges from that state of being into a new creature, beautiful and free.
When we see a butterfly we usually look with amazement because we know about the transformation, the struggle of becoming…..
I say, let us be like the Butterfly, just show them don’t tell them; just be!
Happy New Year!
