A New Perspective

Sometimes we get so wrapped up

in our perpetual way of seeing things,

we lose the ability to see potential, to open to surprise,

to find a new way of interpreting what is.

We become so comfortable with the stories

we tell ourselves about our lives

and the way things work

and why things happen

and who's to blame

that we forget they're just stories.

If the old ones don't fit,
we can create new stories.

What things in your life do you need to see

through new eyes?

Now's the time.
Happy New Year.
