Daffodil Principle

It's been a while since I've been on my blog. I was hoping to do this more often.



I heard my ordinary miracle today. Not sure if I spelled it right or not but it was a story called "The Daffodil Principle" It was a story about a woman who goes with her daughter to experience a daffodil field with something like 50,000 flowers planted by one woman. At the end of the story there were several statements about living your life now. One of them sounded perfect to me. It was "Don't live your life worried that it will end. Worry that it will never begin." I wholeheartedly agree with that. It's not about when is it all going to end but make sure it begins.

I think my life is in full gear but there are a few things I would like to do along the way. So as the story goes, I have to get started. I have to learn to love the journey and not just the end. I have to learn to take the steps to make things happen.

I have had a thought for several years about starting my own consulting business. Maybe I need to do it. Maybe I need o take the plunge and start...one step and a time...I think I can do it.

My friend Megan would laugh at me adding this but I love the song "The Climb" by Miley Cyrus. That's right....I like Miley. The chorus says "Ain't about how fast I get there. Ain't about what's waiting on the other side. It's the climb. You've just gotta love the journey and not worry about what's on the other side.
