It's nearly the end of the first month of 2012, and after givin it some thoughts.. I have just decided what my one real resolution and commitment for this new year is.. but first here's a quick intro to it before it's revealed!
"Be daring, be different, be impractical, be anything that will assert integrity of purpose and imaginative vision against the play-it-safers, the creatures of the commonplace, the slaves of the ordinary." C.Beaton
(Today's reflection from my partner in crime and soul sister, Gracias @PCSofia;)
So whatever way takes us away from the 'comorfot zone' or in my own words mediocrety.. will do! If it shakes us, brakes us, or changes us, let's just let it be! And whilst we are being pushed beyond our limits and resistant, let's allow ourselves to be taken to amazing places, experience breathtaking moments, live mind blowing adventures and build/maintain beautiful relationships! Only then, the real magic and *elixir of life can be experienced and everything else just makes sense somehow, everything else would had been worth it! If life gives you lemons, make lemoande.. or us we Latins say 'If life gives you lemons.. get some salt & tequila' its more like a practical metaphore too and even be taken literaly ;) Buckle up, always take deep breaths and simply try and enjoy the ride..!
Anyway so, it took me a entire month to realise what religion, mantra or philosphy could fit this year and age in just perfectly and this is what it will be for me, for the next 11 months and so on.. to just:
THINK BIG & KICK ASS!
*elixir of life: Liquid portion of the Master Work, the goal of all alchemists. The Elixir of Life heals diseases and grants long life when ingested. The Alchemist carries some in a flask through the desert. From my most read and fave book at the time still, 'The Alchemist' by my fave writer of all times, Paulo Coelho.
