Realignment

Baxter's Buzz

Last night, Wifey and I started to move some things around to get ready for our new arrival this spring. I have clothes in two different closets (if you know me, you're not surprised) with our baby coming, I need to consolidate to one closet. When you have new things enter your life, you have to make room for them. Sometimes making room for things involves making tough decisions. You may have to let go of a certain lifestyle, a certain habit or let go of certain people to allow others in. People and other things may enter your life for a season. Some seasons last longer, but most of them eventually end. Jimi Hendrix once said, "Castles made of sand fall in the sea, eventually."

Don't be afraid of your future. Embrace it. Don't be consumed by your past. You can take a peak in the rear-view mirror, but your eyes must be looking forward. It's the only way you can reach the goals that you have set for yourself. You can learn from the past. You can reference the past. You cannot, however, live in the past. Onward and upward!
