What does change really mean? It means that we have to let go of our past success and failures and take the first step to move beyond our past. When we get stuck remembering our past success and failures, we can’t move forward. We can’t move forward, because we don’t want to let go of the past. Some of us are holding on to the past, our past looks, our past relationships, our past religion, our past suffering, our past is what we have chosen to define us. I used to be a football player, and I use to be a size two, I use to be a lady’s man. But you are none of those things now. You will never fit that size two again. You will never play football again. We must let go of what was and move forward with creating a new future. Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate or powerless. Our deepest fear is the fear of the unknown. The fear of going not knowing. The fear of walking into darkness, not being able to see what is ahead, but trusting the journey. The thing we fear the most is the thing we need the most, change. Today is a new day, and we must forget those things that are behind us and press forward with new memories.
