I happened to attend Christ Unity Church the other day, and the minister there had chosen this theme for 2012, which I really like – “Resolve to Evolve” – meaning, take what you have learned to this point in time, good and not so much, and allow that to evolve into a forward motion. I really appreciate this ‘short and sweet’ reminder to keep looking forward, to bring out the best in myself, and to let the past go, like a tuft from a dandelion blowing in the wind. Remember when you were young and picked a dandelion that was ready to ‘seed’, and you blew on the dandelion to make the seeds let go of the stem and flow freely? Kind of the same concept.
We are going through a tremendous challenge on this Earth – do we want to continue with the ‘old’ paradigm, or do we truly want to ‘resolve to evolve’? I pray we all make it through and remind ourselves daily that we ALL face some kind of challenge in this lifetime, and to remember those who face the greatest challenge of all….serving in the U.S. Military. Perhaps one day there will not be a need for ‘military’. Perhaps one day we will truly be able to understand that we are ALL here for a reason. Until then, I keep it all in prayer, and do my best to “Resolve to Evolve”.
Reverend Kevin Ross came up with that concept, and it works for me!
