Inspiration
How do we change our lives so that we can live more effectively and hope-fully?
How do we change our world so it can exist more peacefully and abundantly?
Does it happen because we have an "a-ha!" moment, after which everything
is different? Does it happen because of one dramatic experience, after which
we change everything about how we live and think?
Maybe.
But sometimes, it's much simpler. And much quieter.
Christmas is a story about the birth of something small and ordinary, but
which ends up changing the world. It may be that our lives – and our
world -- get changed by the birth of things that initially look so small and
ordinary, but which grow and end up transforming everything. One new habit,
small in itself but practiced over a lifetime, can change a life. One new attitude,
one new practice, one new mindset.
What might be born in you this Christmas season?
