This is the eve of New Year 2010, and so I prepare myself to begin again. So many resolutions have been made over the years. This can be discouraging OR encouraging. The positive minded person can see that even failure is a success because efforts are made.
So easy to never fail because one might not risk making new efforts - reaching out to try new ways / new ideas.
Our faith teaches us to make progress at all times, regardless of how we feel. After all, feelings can be deceiving. The person who is willing to try, is the person who will make progress.
God could so easily have made each one of us perfect. However, we would be very foolish to think that we are a perfect being. In fact we are, you could say, only half-created.
God has done His part. Now it's up to us to do our part by responding to the graces that come our way, each day.
This is the beauty and challenge of becoming a whole person. We respond to love and so we become LOVE!
Each new day we have a chance to begin again.
