“Obstacles cannot crush me.Every obstacle yeilds to stern resolve. He who is fixed to
a star does not change his mind” Leonardo DaVinci
“Obstacles are the frightening things you see when you take your eyes off your goal” Henry Ford
It’s a winter wonderland here. We have lots of snow and the roads are challenging to navigate. Kind of like transition time….the temptation is to “hole up” until the spring thaw, allow the obstacles of crazy drivers, slippery roads, and all sorts of external hassles to create an barrier to whatever path we are on.
As you go through transitions what is your personal style? Is it one where the externals all need to line up without any boulders in the road? Or, will you plow through, perhaps reach out for help? Or do you just bull your way thru on your on, no help, puhleaze…
I have decided that the snow is here to stay. I remember the delight my young daughters took in snow days…making snow angels…snow people…snow ball fights….melting snow…
Having grown up in Southern California I dreamed of one day PLEASE let the snow fall on my front yard, shoot, I got roller skates for Christmas and was able to use them that day…
So, just for today, my experiment is to approach the world, the challanges, the externals with the eyes of a child. Open for adventure, not accepting the blocks, but being creative in making my world full and free.
Blessings.
