Completion

Today is about completion.

 

The real problem of the Christian life comes . . . the very moment you wake up each morning.  All your wishes and hopes for the day rush at you like wild animals.  And the first job each morning consists simply in shoving them all back; in listening to that other voice, taking that other point of view, letting that other larger, stronger, quieter life come flowing in.

C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity

 

Life is not about checking off items on lists . . .

Not everyone needs a to-do list.

Some of us need “don’t do” lists.

T. Alexander Anderson, The Gift of Time

 

My serenity is directly proportional to my level of acceptance.
