A New Twist on Resolutions

I had originally planned my first blog of 2020 to be sent closer to January 10th, near the first Full Moon of the decade. However two friends forwarded items to me that I think should get out into the universe sooner rather than later.

The first is a new twist on New Years Resolutions:

I surrender the year that has just past and ask that only the love remain. I cast all else into a fire of transformative power. I release myself and others from any effects of my wrongmindedness or wrongdoing. I surrender who I was, what I did, who I loved--who I failed to love--and ask that all things be made right. May I continue to grow in light and in love--and this year, may I be better.

I plan to embrace these words (the author of which is unknown to me) and adapt them as my own guiding principle for 2020.

Sacred Earth has its origins in Australia from 2012. It is a combination of photos and spiritual music. Friends have already commented on its impact. To some spiritually awesome and others simply relaxing. Each will have your own experience. Do however, send blessings and prayers to Australia particularly NSW as catastrophic fires ravage areas around Sidney.

Personally, I am coming off a whirlwind December weaving together my mother’s passing with Christmas and New Years. I’ve been embraced by the generosity of family, colleagues and friends. Grief is unfolding.

My hope for each of you in 2020 is to have inner peace and greater joy and engagement at work. I will be mixing the blogs up with print and video in 2020.
