Holding On

whitney on February 5th, 2010

Even though you may want to move forward in your life, you may have one foot on the brakes.
In order to be free, we must learn how to let go.  Release the hurt. Release the fear.
Refuse to entertain your old pain.  The energy it takes to hang onto the past is holding you back
from a new life.  What is it you would let go of today?

Leaving behind same things

whitney on January 8th, 2010

You may wonder, ‘How can I leave it all behind if I am just coming back to it? How can I make a new beginning if I simply return to the old?’ The answer lies in the return. You will not come back to the ’same old thing.’ What you return to has changed because you have changed. Your perceptions will be altered. You will not incorporate into the same body, status, or world you left behind.

A mother’s love for her child is like nothing else in the world. It knows no aw, no pity, it dares all things and crushes down remorselessly all that stands in its path.
