Life is in session!  The class is happening, the year has started and part of me wants to skip class already. 😉  Funny how it only took a few days, huh?  I have come to realize that when I try to fight reality, I lose every time.  It does not seem to stop me from trying though.  What is it about our ego that can get so fixed on wanting things the way we want them?  What makes me think I know best way for things to go?  The truth of the matter is that so often when things are not going the way I want them to, they turn out way better than I could have imagined.  It is important for me to remember that God truly is in charge and God has my back.  Whatever happens the power of the Most High is on my side and will be with me every step of the way.  I will do my part and walk through the feelings and take the action to show up and be present as best as I can.  Being present means letting go of meaning that I create, letting go of any fantasy I have about how it “should” be and attending to life as it is.  Simple–yes, easy–not necessarily, doable–most definitely.  It is clearly no mistake that the challenge I put out there for you and me this year was to each day find one thing that we are willing to let go of meaning about and ask God for the Creator’s meaning.  For today, I am willing to set aside the meaning I have created for the situation at work.  What meaning are you willing to turn over today?  My prayer for us all is that we have the courage this day to ask God to remove that which stands in the way of us being in attendance for our lives.  Make it a great one!  Peace~Colleen
