And how we must not let things get in our way. And how we must try not to be in the way of others who are beginning things that long ago became second nature to us."Cheryl Smithhttp://www.culturesmithconsulting.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5559264494172724381.post-36192392919464968302010-07-14T00:31:09.160-04:002010-07-14T00:31:09.160-04:00Wish you wonderful moments "after" the b...Wish you wonderful moments "after" the beginning.<br /><br />Surprises sometimes have the way of coming in intimidating packages :)<br /><br />Courage and passion,<br />SusanS.

You know, like the young woman recently in Canada at the G20 meeting who went up to the gas-masked police holding roses and showing her bright eyes. She stared 'em down.<br /><br />Then do as O'Donohue wrote: "Bless the space between" you. Here are a few of his words on beginnings:<br /><br />". . . Beginnings often frighten us because they seem like lonely voyages into the unknown. Yet, in truth, no beginning is empty or isolated. . . A beginning is ultimately an invitation to open toward the gifts and growth that are stored up for us. To refuse to begin can be an act of great self-neglect.<br /><br />". . . There can be no growth if we do not remain open and vulnerable to what is new and different. . .<br /><br />". . .a beginning. . . is an opening for surprises. . . ."Maureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13290283101378474845noreply@blogger.com
