We have just had the Winter Equinox, one of the two points in the year when the days and nights are an equal length, a point at which we march towards Spring and then Summer. We are also approaching New Years Eve, a time when we celebrate with loved ones and reflect on the year that has passed. We reflect on all the happy and sad moments of the year, all the times when we shined and the times we wish we could do over. We also make resolutions for the coming year. These are often impulsive attempts to improve our lives that often don’t stand up to the busyness of our lives and the already entrenched habits that we already have.
Having said all of this, our lives are actually in a constant flux of ending and beginning in every moment. We are not the same person we were ten years ago and we are not the same person we were ten seconds ago. We get a whole new body roughly every seven years and our minds change with every though that we have in the context of every other thought we have had. So we do not have to wait until a key point in the year such as New Years Eve to make a positive change in our lives, we can do this in every moment with one decision and the habits to back it up.
