Knowing what to do

By Philip Dodson

Often we are unsure of what to do.

We umm and argh about what might be the solution.

The thing is there is not one answer, so perhaps it is not worth the worry about what choice to make. Anyone might work.

Perhaps it is better to just do something without too much thought, then get even better next time if it doesn’t bring the outcome we’d hope for.

Imagine if we took a lifetime of energy that we can end up wasting on indecision and applied it to action instead. What could we all achieve?

The light is coming

Today is the winter solstice in the northern hemisphere.

So from today, every day will get slightly lighter, will be slightly longer.

But, the difference in the amount of light from one day to the next is hardly noticeable for months, not until March maybe is there any significant difference.

Life is the same, small changes add up to a big deal, and the little daily steps count but we can’t see the results initially. So often we give up.

Keep going in the dark days as the light will always come if we work at it and make the small daily commitments.
