"Just Do It!"
Nike

Dear Hearts,

As we move closer to the end of this year, we have the opportunity to contemplate the 2008 columns of our lives….one column for positives and one column for minuses. They are both equally important to observe. We can relish what's in the positive column and be grateful for all of our accomplishments and for all the gifts that life has so generously bestowed upon us. Then we get to look at the minus side. The trick, when looking at the minus side, is to ask ourselves only one question, "What have we learned from this?" Then, let's formulate our answer, and move on. Let's not get trapped into "why", "what if" or "if only". The past is just that -- passed! Let's learn from it and move on!

Life is now beckoning us forward. As we move closer to this brand new year, we have the opportunity to create it anyway we choose. We have the opportunity to complete anything left undone in 2008. Such as; Couldn’t find enough time to spend with our loved ones? Didn't say, "I love you" enough to those we truly love? Didn't give our personal best? Didn't take good enough care of our body? Forgot to take those art lessons? Never set the time aside to meditate? Too busy to join that exercise class? Forgot to watch our diets?

Well, today is a whole new beginning, a brand new year has begun. We get to create this year anyway we choose. We don't have to fall slave to past behavior. In 2009, we have the opportunity to figuratively join hands with all those individuals who have accomplished great things with three simple words ~

"JUST DO IT"

And...we can!


With love and blessings,

Rev. Barbara
