Journey to the Heart

Make a Fresh Start

Sometimes we need to start over—in work, in love, in our place of residence, in creating our lives. Sometimes we have to start over again when we don’t want to, didn’t plan on it, and don’t think it’s fair.
We may end a relationship, move, start a new job, start a new career, or begin an entirely different part of our lives, a part so different we don’t recognize it as being connected to the earlier ones. It’s new. We’re new. Life is new. We’re starting over again.
Sometimes it feels like we’re starting from scratch. While we may feel a sense of excitement about this new beginning, we may also harbor a sense of dread. Not again. Not one more time. I can’t. I don’t want to. That reaction is understandable. We become tired, frightened. We feel uncertain.
Honor all your feelings, all your emotions. Remember all your lessons. Clear the way to the heart. Then make a decision.
It’s time for a fresh start.

Often, when we feel the urge to travel, it’s connected to a deeper urge, the urge to go somewhere new on our path.
Recognize the desire in your heart totravel and see new horizons. Thenhonor it, for it reveals your desire totouch new horizons in your life.

Remember to honor and value the work and the tasks that are yours to do—from the smallest to the grandest. Wash the dishes, fold the laundry, hold a business meeting, rake the yard. Each task is important.
Value work. Let it connect youto the rhythms of life.
