Today is a new beginning and I am going to "start here". While working through the series "LtQ2" one of the women interviewed shared the observations of an old Rabbi. He has said, "no one can become observant all at once. There are 631 Jewish laws, pick one and start." So today I will start. This is not the first time I have chosen to have a fresh start and it won't be the last. The point is I continue to choose to begin again and let go of my resentments and pick up the pieces of my shattered life and begin again. I continue to choose to search and look at myself and see where I am my own worst enemy. I continue to evaluate where I see the sacred mystery in my life and continue to ask how can I engage with it.
I just spent five days with new friends, colleagues and faces which will journey with me from now on. I am blessed and I am grateful for these people. They are the face of God to me. A God, which is caring, supportive and loving in my life and a God that I can share with all those I meet. A God which does not need praise or adoration but a God that can walk beside me in human form, Jesus and a God which I feel created me in the grand scheme of the universal creation story and a God from which my spirit continually is attached and fed with a sacred umbilical cord. A God for which I can be truly and authentically thankful to and for. That is my definition of God.
