to begin again … re-new-all
Long has been my journey around the sun, many things I should understand by now, and maybe not. You see, to experience something again many years later, is to experience the moment as new. Familiar yes, still new now. I am not who I was many years back, I am new, again today. Everyday, is new. (like fashion trends, here we go again, with a twist)
Experiences relived with new eyes is a new experience. (key word NEW)
Beginnings happen when stars align. I smile every time I see these words. Honestly, there is truth to these words. My stars have aligned. In my months of retirement I have found a new me surfacing, one who never knew a day of nothing. No responsibility to a requirement of reporting somewhere, to do something required, to live as required, to earn a paycheck. My sons are grown and successful individuals, of which I am most proud. I find myself now, doing nothing obligatory. Major adjustment. Amazing.
Beauty of age, of living, of being responsible, I am retired.
Anyone who knows me, knows, my deep love for Dragonfly (duh this website). My inspiration with every image I see of photos I have taken, renews me. Powerful connection. Beauty of retirement is realizing a dream imagined, started, then hibernating, is now expanding. My website is having a baby, more of my dream is beginning to surface, so much more. Growth is a necessary step with any vision, dream, imagined outcomes. Seeds of beauty have been germinating. More is coming so very soon to this website, I smile really big with an absolute JOY in my being for what is to come!
Stop back, very soon, this is a teaser, many new photos are arriving in an array of beauty!
Every.day.is.NEW.
Never stop believing in what your heart is passionate about. Never. Even when the walls fall in, the world stops spinning, darkness swells and you weep. What is your passion, what calls from your soul, will blow apart whatever interferes, you just have to believe in YOU. Obstacles are your secret weapon to realize who are, who you really are. Hidden in the shards of my pain, the sparkle of more called.
It is time to begin again, this is your … re-new-all.
Smile, I am!
Nancy
