Start From Where You Are



Start from where you are - WHOLE heartedly- accepting yourself in this present moment. Start from where you are - rather than the place you wish were were, you hoped to be, or thought you should be. 

Start from where you are - loving yourself in this perfect moment, this correct time. There is no other place or condition or feeling that you could be or have. This IS you, right now. Be THIS fully, be this with compassion.

Start from where you are - accepting this moment is the doorway to the next; this is the way to be in this next moment fully. It is one of the cosmic jokes; you can't change until you ARE.

The paradox of our practice is that the most effective way of transformation is to leave ourselves alone. The more we let everything be just what it is, the more we relax into an open, attentive awareness of one moment after another.-  Barry Magid, "Five Practices to Change Your Mind"
