Happy new year all my friends. It’s a new year and we are indeed “growing”. What is growth? By now every atom in every cell in our organism as a child has been recycled with the universe. The kid we were then has died, life, as we know it, is sustained by death and rebirth.

In this transition through another 365 day-cycle we should remember that our lives are not measured from new year to year but by consistent growth in becoming who we are truly meant to be. True growth, is dying to that which does not define who we are.

Becoming who we are truly meant to be is not the same as finding one’s identity. Many think life is about finding their identity or creating one, however our identity already is. We should therefore remember our identity at all times without mistaking it as our personalities, egos or cultural bonds. Our identity is the source of our being, Life, a citizen of Eternal Love. Becoming who we are truly meant to be, is manifesting this identity according to our own eternal idiosyncrasies and gifts.

Things fade, people are forgotten, circumstances will change, fortunes will be lost, experiences will be had and gone. What we are truly meant to be is not typified by a life lived ensuring that we keep certain circumstances the same(personal or otherwise), hold on to fortunes, relive good experiences or hold on to people that we love. What we are truly meant to be involves making every moment in life count, making every moment reflect a choice that elevates our being to the highest. Let us choose to be the best of who we are being.

In this new year may peace and sincerity guide your hearts towards a higher you.
