 PUT YOUR BEHIND IN YOUR PAST Click here to join nidokidos
I like what Miguel de Cervantes, the author of DON QUIXOTE, said,
"Love not what you are, but what you may become." There is hope that
I can always change for the better. I can become more self confident,
More in charge of my life, healthier, happier -- you get the idea.
And there is hope that I can change a situation -- like finding a new
Career or going after a new life-style.
 
If you're like me, making any big changes can be scary. We will have
To COMMIT. And we may have to take a risk.
 
Let me illustrate what I mean:
 
Consider a performer on a trapeze. She swings back and forth. And
Then she encounters another trapeze bar. It is swinging toward her
And it is empty. Now she has a decision to make. She may continue to
Hang onto her present bar, or let go and grasp the new one. But she
Can't do both! She can't hang onto the old and grasp the new with her
Other hand. She HAS to decide which she wants.
 
If she chooses to let go of the past and grasp the future, she finds
Herself suspended for a moment in mid-air. Scary! It's too late to go
Back and she has not yet latched onto the other bar. She is
Vulnerable and at risk. But she has decided to take that risk in
Order to move forward.
 
Life is like that. Sometimes you have let go of something if you want
To latch onto something else. Maybe you will need to let go of an old
Job in order to take a new one. Or you may have to let go of an old
Relationship before fitting a new one into your life. You have to let
Go of other priorities on your time or money before grasping that new
Opportunity.
 
And for a while you may feel suspended in mid-air. You've committed
To something new and let go of the past, but you have not yet grasped
What is ahead. You feel vulnerable and you may be frightened. But you
Know that the only way you can reach the new "bar" is to let go of
The old one.
 
But like Simba (from "The Lion King") says, "Ya gotta put your behind
In your past." Then you're ready for whatever comes next.
