Honouring Our Teachers
Dare to live the life you have dreamed for yourself. Go forward and make your dreams come true.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Today I want us to pause the noise, pause
the activity for just a brief moment – so that we can reflect. Wise people have
practiced this before, and it has served them well, like it will serve us this
day.
I know how much excitement and anticipation
and great energy is focused right now inside us towards those goals ahead of
us. I feel, my friend, how eager we are to continue building what we started,
and I know that ahead of us is a greatest year yet – the one that will reveal our
finest moments. But before we step forward, let’s just take into account all of
those teachers in our personal school of life whose guidance in the particular
moments was a revelation, a breakthrough, a godsend to us.
The awareness of their significance is ever
present in our daily life, I am sure. And because of the opportunity to learn
from the best, they deserve a special time of recognition. With remembering
them, we cannot miss what great strides we have taken on our journey. Take
note, my friend, because those smaller victories are the part of the biggest
victory of your life. The mastery and inspiration, which guided you through
those teachers, has helped you to call upon your best self and deal with the
life situation that challenged you to grow. And my, how much have we grown! Our
lives now and then almost bare no similarity - those are the kind of strides we
have taken.
In remembering every word, look, hug,
message, friend who has encouraged us and been there for us – we also remember
and honour us from yesterday. Knowing that you did the best you had in you at
that time, helps you see that you will always find a way to build, rebuild,
grow, heal, reconstruct, dream and realise every dream into possibility and
reality, and you will still be moving forward.
This connection between our past and future
is what’s keeping the needle steady in the now. This is what brings and keeps
the peace and balance inside your soul. You know who you are and you know what
has taken for you to be where you are now. You have all it takes, right inside you, to go forward
into new victory, new dream, new you – bigger, brighter, clearer, better you.
You have absolutely done it before!
Be calm and brave about going forward into the
unknown. My friend, the unknown is less scary than what you have already been
through. Trust with your whole heart than you will have the answer every time
life asks a question from you. Your teachers have already shown you the way. They
lived it, and so will you.
Stay true to yourself. Above all.

P. S. Our teachers are always with us.
Always have been, and always will stay that way. I just wanted you to pause and
remember it. Open your heart and let them, and your inner being, guide you to
greater you. Sending you peace and love….
