A clean slate.
A blank canvas.
The tabula rasa.

Welcome to nothing, the beginning of everything.

31536000 seconds and opportunities to stop living in the past or the future and be in the moment. This very moment where your entire life is happening. Anything an hour from now is your imagination, an expectation. Anything an hour before is your memory, an experience. The present moment is a present to you. And your presence in this is all that you have. Using this moment to be the sakshi of your life. To pay attention to your feelings, thoughts, and actions. To notice when you feel angry, sad, guilty, ashamed. When you judge, criticize, or blame others. Be aware when you act impulsively, compulsively, or destructively.

525600 minutes to be filled with memories, magic, joy, love and laughter. Of showing up to create a better universe. Of pouring your love into the next conversation, the next poem, the next breakfast. Of being nothing but love.

8760 hours of falling in love with yourself, every part of your being and discovering your true, authentic self. Of bringing into awareness and letting go of those parts that don't serve you and integrating even those that you've shunned, disowned and suppressed.

365 days of new sunsets, sunrises, dreams, fresh starts. 52 weeks of being curled up with a favourite book, or a loved one of both. Of making a life that you deserve. 12 months of putting yourself out there in the world and allowing for all the miracles to happen through you.

One year of starting from nothing, finding everything and surrendering yourself to the leela of the universe, nirbhay, nirvair. Without fear, without hate. Of becoming nothing, but just being. Of having a desire for nothing other than to know yourself.

Not knowing where to start is a good place to start. Start now with becoming nothing. You don't have to be anyone, but you. And you are everything, whole and complete.

Happy new year!
