From The Book of Awakening: Having the Life You Want by Being Present to the Life You Have.
….the Polynesians have carried for us the wisdom that we each grow in this life by breaking successive shells…
Saturday – it was a busy day today of trying to start catching up on things so that I can put aside this big laptop, and shift everything I might need to the little one – breaking the reliance on all the things that are on this computer so that I don't have to be hauling it around… and in among these busy moments Mir put to me a simple yet profound observation, that now I've started paying attention to things that I'd dropped, the universe has reciprocated with a thank you.
Another shell has been broken and I'm on the threshold of another growth, and one into which I feel myself a step closer to the path that truly could lead me home… to myself.
From the beginning,
the key to renewal has been shedding,
the casting off of old skin.
