Looking at the Horizon
April 9th, 2009 by Ana Scherer
Hong Kong will be my home in a few days. The move has been very smooth, easy and stress-free. I am grateful to all the people in my life that helped me during this transition and that wished me well. My support system has been phenomenal. Support + organization is a potent recipe for a smooth transition. I am not only talking about a geographical transition; this recipe is good for all kinds of transitions. One needs a strong support system and a good dose of organization to be able to move on to the next stage in life. I am glad I’ve had both.
Each stage of our lives is filled with surprises. Balance is the key to go through the changes with grace. We naturally search for stability, peace and balance. It’s important to realize what we need in order to cultivate this balance. Even the way we were made reflects this reality - we are 50% material beings and 50% spiritual beings. If we focus our attention only in the material, represented by this world, we invite chaos into our lives. If we focus only on the spiritual, we loose ourselves. When we forge an alliance between these two realities, we find balance.
Observe the horizon, where heaven and earth meet. There they become one. In essence, that’s the secret for balance. And it’s right in front of our eyes.
With energy,
Ana
