Awakening

Every morning I read an affirmation from the book "The Book of Awakening: Having the Life You Want by Being Present to the Life You Have".  This morning had a great life lesson:

"...the stage of development we are in is always seen against the imagined landscape of what we are striving for."

"The simple rose, at each moment of its slow blossoming, is as open as it can be. The same is true of our lives. In each stage of our unfolding, we are as stretched as possible. For the human heart is quite slow to blossom, and is only seen as lacking when compared to the imagined lover or father or mother we'd like to become."

"However much we've done at the end of the day is more than enough; it is dream becoming truth."

Don't push yourself past your abilities. No matter what you do, you will be well on your way to becoming the person you want to be.
