As the Kite flies through the sky, its tail drags behind it.
This creates a certain direction and stability to the kite, and is totally
necessary for its flight into the unknown sky.
As we leave behind one year and
move into a new year, we are moving forward just like that kite… the year
behind us, trailing in the background… its triumphs and tragedies, successes
and lessons learned, the people and events that have shaped our history… they
still affect us as we move forward.
However, even though we do not simply leave the past behind, what has happened in the past is in the past, and cannot be changed... the only thing that we can change about our past is the way think and feel about it. May we be at peace with our past and forgive others and ourselves with whatever has happened there.... and even though our history
creates a certain direction and predictability in our lives, we move into an
unknown future and anything can happen….
... but this is the joy of flight… the
thrill of living.
May your journey ahead create a unique joyous challenge for
the tail that follows it. Have a great year. God Bless.
