Happy New Year, everyone!  I wanted to share a few sentences from Melody Beattie’s Journey to the Heart with you.  This is one of my favorite books.  It’s subtitled Daily Meditations on the Path to Freeing Your Soul.  Each day contains a short, well-written, thoughtful message to contemplate.  I love it and highly recommend it.

Here is a brief excerpt from the January 1 message.  Enjoy!

Honor the Beginning

Let yourself begin anew.  Pack your bags.  Take along some humility and the lessons of the past.  Toss in some curiosity and excitement about what you haven’t yet learned.  Say your good-byes to those you’re leaving behind.  Don’t worry about who you will meet or where you will go.  A new journey has begun.  Let it be magical.  Let it unfold.

I wish everyone a magical New Year.
