THE DAILY SPARK

CHANGE

Not everything that is faced can be changed.  But nothing can be changed until it is faced. 

Quote by James Baldwin from his essay titled “AS MUCH TRUTH AS ONE CAN BEAR” written for The New York Times published January 14th, 1962

REFLECTION:

  • Is there a change you are not facing?
  • How can you use this holiday weekend celebrating freedom to face something that needs to be changed and experience a new level of freedom?

HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT

See Screech Owl hidden in hole made by Pileated Woodpecker in a Sycamore tree Quiet Water's Park

Above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places.  Those who don’t believe in magic will never find it.

Roald Dahl,  THE MINPINS

REFLECTION:

  • What are you not seeing?
  • Is there something hidden in an unlikely place?
  • What if you could  embrace magic and see the world with glittering eyes.  Try it.  What do you see?

AGAINST THE WIND

When everything seems to be going against you, remember that the airplane takes off against the wind, not with it.

Quote by Henry Ford
 

REFLECTION:

  • What winds are you fighting against?
  • How can you embrace this as a lift off?
