Subject: RE: Thought for the Day - Sept 6,00
I believe it is important to acknowledge who we are at the moment. It helps to know what you have to work form or a starting point. It is also important, though, to know that we can be something else, if we put our minds and hearts to it. I cannot remember the ratio but in so many days, months, years, the molecules in our bodies completely change over to new ones; it is an ongoing process. To that end, then, the physical should be able to be changed, although it also requires adherence to exercise and diet. I struggle with this all of the time, thinking, if all of the molecules in my leaky heart valve are constantly changing, then I will visualise them knitting together and changing to a fully functioning valve. Idealistic, maybe, but, in my belief in metaphysics, I believe the potential is there to do so. Theoretically, it should be possible.

Likewise, we do not have to accept who we are at this moment, as who we will always be. Each of us is evolving, everyday, into a new and different consciousness. I look back now and give thanks for who I was and know that I did my best at the time, but I also give thanks that I am NOT that person now and for lessons learned.

Interesting as ever, Peter.
