Quote from The Tao of Pooh by Benjamin Hoff

The first thing we need to do is recognize and trust our own Inner Nature, and not lose sight of it. For within the Ugly Duckling is the Swan, inside the Bouncy Tigger is the Rescuer who knows the Way, and each of us is something Special, and that we need to keep”

Working on self is a wonderful thing to do. The game of stretching and growing as a being should be a life’s work, not something that is completed when you graduate or when you finally achieve the corner office with all the windows.

Yet there is a caution here. In all the stretching and growing remember the Swan that you are is also there, ready for the transformation because both the ugly duckling and the swan are really the same, it’s just our own perception of ourselves that changes.

The story of transformation is not about the physical but about the inner transformation that creates the miracle. All it takes is just a slight change in the angle of your head.

Enjoy the weekend’s liberation. Explore the dusty canyons of your mind, chase butterflies, smell flowers and and love each other.

This my special gift for you for the weekend: Video
