Be in the "Now" to Be in the New
This past Friday, March 20th was the Spring Equinox. In nature, it's a time of beginnings. New growth, new life and even a new moon. Its a time when things are about to bloom, but not quite yet. Warm weather is looming, but not quite yet. Trees and flowers are on the verge of bursting into full and vibrant color, but not quite yet. Maybe you've sensed a few “not quite yet’s” in your life of late too. Breathe. Breathe in the calm and breathe out the peace of the present moment. Being in the "now" will facilitate bringing you into the "new." The new of "what's next" for you.
I find many parallels to life in athletic performance, exercise, endurance and physical challenges. Moving and breathing through a time of fatigue of lifting or increasing stride challenges your muscles and endurance. What follows is a time of repair and recovery. And then a new space of endurance or definition appears.
Whatever we may be feeling physically, emotionally or even spiritually, because its all connected, is bringing us closer to the "new," the what's next for our lives. It may not make complete sense, almost like we can't quite put a finger on it or even explain the "between" feeling and we may not even know exactly what the "next" is, but we know its something other than what we have, what we have done and perhaps in some cases whom we associate with. Allow and breathe through, soon the fullness and newness of Spring with all its virbrancy and bloom will be here. The beauty of this Spring season is we don't have to figure it out or work at it. It comes on its own when we are in the now.
