Time

Today is a new day... here. Compare: UK, it's afternoon; Australia, it's almost bedtime. So... is the dawning of a new day (season, riptide, etc) more a change within ourselves rather than a calendar? **ie. astrology, current division of days, religious festivals** One may hope to succeed in a "new year's resolution". However, a resolution could take place at any time, any week of the year! Change hinges on choice, after choice, after choice. I figure that everyone changes. Without conscious effort, most change for the worst. Whereas persistent dedication and relentless support... effect a change via self-awareness / enlightenment. So, a lifetime is a great time to exercise potential. Many attempt to inspire hope regarding our existence and how we can do SO much. Well, so much can be accomplished by the fulfillment of ourselves. Time is beyond us. We are not in control of our lives. One bigger than ourselves can stir us to better things. <*insert various arguments*> So often, I try to accomplish change, on my own. Even in practising religion... I still struggle to "grow". Granted the only thing that's helped me live in any level of human decency is a recognition of One who loves me. This love is evidenced in my relationships, in nature, even in pain. Grasping a hold of Love has changed my life, my outlook and my headspace. I was not created / invented / put here for myself. However, it is in and through love with my Creator that I love myself and out of that foundation... I "love" others (see the Golden Rule).
