The weather is so remarkable today. It truly feels like spring is here in Southern Ontario. The sun is shining, the air is warm, and I cannot help but think that a day like this is filled with the promise of possibilities. After a winter of hibernation where we tend to coccoon and stay close to home and hearth, spring is like a re-birth. We can choose to open ourselves to the newness and the possibilities inherent in life and in living. Is something preventing you from reaching for those possibilities? There is a risk involved in reaching for something new, something unknown, yet in so doing, our experience can be enhanced in innumerable ways. It is by moving through our comfort zone that we experience personal growth. So many of us keep doing what we always do, making the same choices over and over again, content to stay precisely where we are. Maybe it is because of fear of the unknown, anxiety over change, or complacency.
What is the possibility you want to reach for? It doesn’t have to be a huge life change. It can be something small that opens a door to yet another potential possibility. Or your dream may be loftier. As long as your possibilities are consistent with your values, chances are that opening yourself up for them will enhance your life. Whether they are realized or not, it is in the reaching out that the treasure can be found. Just think of the possibilities!
