I have to wonder if a shadow is only a reflection of our own self in light. We travel so many roads as we make our way through this wondrous life. Some of these roads are bumpy and some are as smooth as riding on a puffy cloud. I was listening to one of my favorite songs the other night sung by the beautiful Stevie Nicks; Landslide. In her song is this verse; “Well, I’ve been afraid of changing, cause I built my life around you. But time makes you bolder, children get older, I’m getting older too.” Love that song!

Change is one of the biggest fears that we as human’s encounter. Instead of looking forward at the new light, we get stuck looking back through our shadows at the things that we find comfort in. It’s like that with most events in our lives and it’s especially like that with the family and friends we love and know so well. We are each allotted so much time here on earth, some more and unfortunately, some less. We need to take as much of our life possible into our hearts and cherish every moment with the ones we love. Remember that time stops for no one. 

Life has so much in store for you when you open your eyes and see the opportunity lurking around all of the corners in your life. It’s never too late to change your life up. When you get to those unknown places, pause for a moment and take a look back. The shadow following is the same old person with all the memories. What about those loved ones who have passed you might be asking? They are right behind you, pushing you along and smiling at the person that you are becoming. 

Yes, we are getting older too, but it is up to you to make all new footprints into your future. Yes, your heart can seem empty in this new, unknown world but watch how full your shadow becomes when you set new roads! Look ahead, your future is calling you! Make it a great day everyone! Only the Shadow knows!!

I love it when a new morning comes.

It reminds me of the saying; “the early bird catches the worm.” We get a new chance every day to either improve on yesterday and or, create and start a new…….. I’ll leave it for you to fill in the last word.

What are you doing with your life? Each day, you have the ability to do something about your situation. Unfortunately, most will create a new excuse to make themselves feel OK with themselves. You know what I mean; “I’ve been busy, I’ve been tired or I’ve been meaning to.” It’s a self-fulfilling prophecy of never happening. 

I’m a believer of fate and I’m a much bigger believer of making things happen. When we do, we create a magnetic force that attracts like thinking people. Napoleon Hill reminded us that, “thoughts are things.” That is the true secret in life. You think your way to your destination.

Humans were given the unique phenomenon of being able to think. With this thought, you can do something special if you choose. Where are your thoughts? Where are these thoughts bringing you? Is it time to switch up those thoughts? You have the choice! You have the choice to do something great in your life! No other being other than humans can.

Choose wisely, choose now!
