If we are to engage life and learn, grow, give, share and rip away the layers and beliefs that hold us back from being simply ourselves, newness is the key.
How do you be new? If you ever hear the voice that says, "I know this already" - you are being stiff (aka dead). If you ever hear the voice that says, "All men or women are (fill in the blank)" you are being stiff (aka dead). If you hear the voice that says, "I'll never be, do or have (fill in the blank) - you are being dead. This list goes on and on.
The goal is to renew our mind through prayer, meditation, yoga, community and purpose, so that each and every moment, we are open and available to life and the higher power being new.
In this state of openness and receptivity, we actually allow ourselves to be reborn. We are reborn out of the death of the thoughts that held us back. We are reborn to be able to be in a new recovery life.
one of the greatest spiritual commandments is, "Behold, I make all things new."
We are starting to see that the nature of reality is far different than we could ever imagine. At the smallest level, particles are appearing and disappearing so fast, we can't notice them. But literally in every moment, we are brand new beings. The world is brand new - disappearing and reappearing.
But - what remains stiff, inflexible and dead are the beliefs and patterns that prevent us from feeling or experiencing this newness.
all recovery is brand new coming from the place of deep addiction and depression .
My life changed because my mind changed. Because I believed it was possible threw the steps to institute profound change, even though I didn't know HOW it was possible.
Our job is not to know how. Our job is to be open, receptive and focus on why. Why must I change?
Because if I don't, I will miss out on beauty, love, success, excitement, family, friends, success, connecting to the higher power, being of service and truly being able to give my gifts.
I didn't feel that it was possible, but I did my best to believe it was possible and, no matter how much my heart ached, to know that it could be reborn brand new. Perhaps not all at once, but perhaps slowly over time. I wanted to find out if it was possible or not.
Today, I know that it's possible. My life has become the vision that seemed SO impossible.
It starts by a change of mind. It starts with the belief in a power greater than myself.
