This morning…Bertha…reminds me that…in order to be…open…to the future…I
have to…continually…let go…of the past…
She goes on to say…letting go…is not the same thing…as…forgetting…I can remember…savor…the past…I just have to…let go…of the…expectation…that it will continue in the present…
As I contemplate it…I realize that it is true…for all areas of my life…from raising my children…to moving from one town to another…to relationships…
And…the list could go on and on…
But…today…it feels appropriate for work…where…suddenly…I have become…one of the…veterans…in a field of new…soldiers…
Bertha…says my mission…should I choose to accept it…and…no…I don’t have a choice…is…to continue to savor…the camaraderie I shared with my friends over the years…while…being open to new friends…and…new ways of doing things…
Hmmm…
Definitely a challenge…but…by no means…impossible…
Jane
