Start Where You Are

You may have seen the great movie, The Pursuit of Happyness, based on the experiences of Chris Gardner. In his new book, Start Where You Are, Chris says, "the power of the present offers each and every one of us the same new beginning....The present throws out a welcome mat as an equal opportunity invitation to come into your own--in order for you to shine as brightly as you were designed by the forces of the Universe to shine..."

But we have to start where we are--not in regret, remorse, or resentment, but in joyful anticipation of newness.
