The Blessings of a New Moon

Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth.
~ Buddha

Cloudy skies, the dark of the moon, an obscure future. How are all these a blessing?

Cloudy skies often mean rain, and we did get some much needed rain here today in Southern California. The dark of the moon is a time of rest and it means a new moon is coming. The new moon represents a time of beginnings. An obscure future means that anything is possible. I often want certainty, but the only thing I can be certain of is what I want, and today I spent some time thinking and feeling through what that is. To write and make a living from it is what I want. And so on this New Moon I declare that I am committed to writing above all else. This blog represents a new beginning. Today I am blessed.

What do you really want? Will you begin today?
