Monday is a great day to start a new adventure. Today, as you venture out into the world, explore this new perspective: Every person you encounter has been on a hero’s journey of life. They have had their trials and tribulations; they have their joys and their fears, they have hopes and dreams, special talents and gifts… and just like you, they are trying their best to be happy. Look past the surface and see each soul as unique and beautiful, worthy of respect and worthy of your time. Know that you too, have a special story that has created your own take on life, your own thought-shaped world. Be open and courageous as you embrace the world you have created for yourself, and explore what you can learn from the stories and lives that have shaped the worldview of those around you. No two stories are the same; love the differences that give color to our world! Life is an epic voyage, and we are all in the same boat. :)
