I’m going to take a bath in this thought for a while. I need it to sink in. And sink in. And sink in.

Now this is a powerful little line. When I was in my early 20’s, it got me through major depression and eating disorders. I’m 34 now and I can see that I have gone back to these words in small and big moments ever since. It’s so good to remember we are never stuck, despite mistakes, difficult moments, etc. I love the idea of bathing in it
:-) I hope it helped!

Hi Penny ~ A while ago I posted about this powerful truth: We can always start over! We usually take it as a bad thing and we forget the freedom and release that comes with that too.
Looking fwd to meeting you at Squam! :)

Thanks Penelope. I just received some (deserved?) not-that-great feedback from someone in my food chain. It made me feel quite unhappy as you may imagine. But then I thought, let’s be humble and learn from this. Adios pride! Let’s start over.

[…] Penelope writes that Every moment is a chance to start over. Why is it then that we are unable to see the obvious and act on it? Every moment is a new opportunity, just as every day is a new day which is waiting to burst forth and unleash all its possibilities. New moments don’t know anything about what has happened before - they are pure and untainted, but we aren’t. We all bring baggage from our past experiences and associated thoughts to every moment. This holds us back like reins pulling at us or chains weighing us down. Yet we can choose to change this. […]
