The Possible You: Reflections on an Easter Egg

I was thinking about an egg today. You know. The egg. The "incredible, edible egg." We eat them. We decorate them. We decorate with them. They are essential representatives of spring time and Easter. What is it about the egg that makes it so special?

If you know the biblical history of Easter and the great rising or rebirth that happened on that day, then you might make the connection between Easter, spring, and the simple egg. The egg represents a coming birth, a hatching, a new life.

Spring is a great time to reflect on our current lives. To weigh our inner selves and determine how we measure up to the self we want to be. It's a time consider if we are in balance, slightly off balance, or simply off the scale. It's the time to consider a possible rebirth of ourselves, the possibility to release the past and bring forth the new, the opportunity to create a self that is...

happy

free

balanced

joyful

healthy

fulfilled

confident

loved

loving

creative

adventurous

open

accepting

assertive

at peace

Who is the self that you seek to create?

What is it you'd like to see more of in your life?

How do you want to feel?

What can you release or add to make these things a reality?

What can you do more of or less of to bring this new you to fruition?

Yes, you deserve it. Yes, it is possible.
