THE POT OF RESILIENCE

Greetings!

And just like that - hello 2023! The idea of entering this new year gives me a certain kind of freshness, an unfamiliar quality of pleasantness. I am looking forward to a different kind of improvement for a different way of excellence.

In 2022, I have completed small circles of completion. One circle at a time with maybe  two steps forward, then one sideways. It felt like leaps to me. I started a giant movement with tiny movements just from going at my own pace. The universe tested me for a while to establish my ability of holding on...  While my hands wept for mercy my grip remained solid and tight. 

In a pot of resilience, I added a seed of wisdom and the sprouting process was unusually lethargic but then new growth began shooting. In my view, they looked like avenues that would eventually lead me to greener pastures. Greener pastures from my world, in my time, and in my way.   

I rebuked the devil time and time again. He wanted from me my pot of resilience to get to the seed of wisdom but I chained him down. I crippled him. Then he ordered for arrows and spears to be thrown at me, but they could not penetrate my skin. No puncture or mark would be the future evidence of a violent thrust for I was completely covered...

When I self-assess today, I can't help, but to fall deeply in love with me! I lived a purposeful 2022, for me. I am an ever growing sprout, shooting away any forces and when the poisonous weeds come, I ask them, "do you know what's in my pot of resilience?"

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
