FROM NOW ON

(after Marshall Rosenberg solstice 23.)

From now on,
I choose to dream my own dreams so that I can fully taste the mystical excitement of being human.

From now on,
I choose to empathically connect so that I can fully respect the unique and holy experience to be found in every moment.

From now on,
I choose to have my actions flow from connection and to direct my attention where it supports this flow.

From now on,
I choose to be aware of unchosen thoughts within me, and to develop more choice in each moment.

From now on,
I choose to openly reveal what is alive within me, even though others may not appreciate the gift.

From now on,
when wearing a title of authority, I choose to be aware that reaching frontiers before others never justifies punitive means to influence them to join me.

From now on,
I choose to remember that the failure of our needs to be fulfilled results from insufficient dialogue and creativity rather than scarcity.

From now on,
I choose to accompany what I carry of the worlds trauma
in love.
