A mentor of mine shared one year ago a quote by Goldie Hawn—
"The lotus is the most beautiful flower, whose petals open one by one. But it will only grow in the mud.
In order to grow and gain wisdom, first you must have the mud - the obstacles of life and its suffering.
"The lotus is the most beautiful flower, whose petals open one by one. But it will only grow in the mud.
In order to grow and gain wisdom, first you must have the mud - the obstacles of life and its suffering.
The mud speaks of the common ground that humans share, no matter what our stations in life.
Whether we have it all or we have nothing, we are all faced with the same obstacles: sadness, loss, illness, dying and death.
Whether we have it all or we have nothing, we are all faced with the same obstacles: sadness, loss, illness, dying and death.
If we are to strive as human beings to gain more wisdom, more kindness and more compassion, we must have the intention to grow as a lotus and open each petal one by one."

Like Distinguished @OlufemiAwoyemi, 4years ago I left a gift for my future self.
“I alone cannot change society for the better, but I can radically transform my own consciousness, overturning the conditioning that limits my potential.
We can all do this, one by one.
“I alone cannot change society for the better, but I can radically transform my own consciousness, overturning the conditioning that limits my potential.
We can all do this, one by one.
Overtime we can change ourselves to the degree that society changes from inside out, giving birth to a new way of being, manifesting our birthright of living in a peaceful & abundant world. Have no fear. trust yourself in God. Live your full potential.
It's going to get better.”
It's going to get better.”
Many today will ask if indeed things are getting better but be comforted...for you are still alive and hope must be kept alive. This usually never gets easier, but we get stronger through the struggles. It’s a game of personal responsibility. Take charge. I believe in you.
