I always had the notion that courage was the stuff of heroes who overcame huge obstacles and did it in a dramatic way. The way of courage and how it is showing up in my life is in the small things. It takes courage to wake up each day and keep going when things seem like they are falling apart. It takes courage to get up one more time and try again, to face another emotion, to let go of another fear, to face another block within oneself, to recognise that things could have been done differently. Life is full of ordinary and extraordinary moments. It is how we choose to enjoy, treasure and use these moments that counts. In order for us to enjoy each moment means that we need to be free from the baggage of the past. Some of us have a trailer-load of baggage, and we wonder why we are always tired and why things seem to go wrong. We wonder why we cannot move forward and why the results of the efforts we make are always the same. So your question may be "How can I, in my small way, make any contribution, and if I do, will it make a difference?" No thoughtful and mindful act, thought or word is too large or too small - they all make a difference. Find out how you can start with 12 easy steps! Anything is possible - Anything! Love the moment; live the experience; watch the miracles unfold!
