There are so many from our past who only remember us as we were when we knew them. Meanwhile, we have experienced many small shifts and perhaps many very large shifts…we are not the same as when they knew us.

We grow and evolve. We sometimes grow in giant leaps, but we often change slowly with many tiny steps. Sometimes these changes are imperceptible, but we see we traveled a long distance when we look back. We shed our old lives and step into new ones. Some of us even get our wings and take flight, but the people in our past still remember a version of us that is often long gone.



This is also true for those in our daily lives; they think we are the same as last year, last week…yesterday. But are we? I know I’m not. I know my wings are continually evolving, taking me to new heights every day.



The twist is that we do the same thing with others; we see them through the eyes of the past without giving them room to grow and evolve.  Do we see those closest to us with fresh eyes each day? Do we allow them to take flight, or do we keep them in the same tiny box we put them in, perhaps years ago?



This is what makes meeting new people and having new relationships so exhilarating; we don’t hold these new people to past images we have of them. We allow them to unfold to us. It’s not the “newness” of these relationships that feels so good; it’s that WE are open, we are open to seeing with fresh eyes, and this openness makes us feel alive.



There’s a profound principle that, once accepted, can change everything: We experience what we believe is true of others. So if I want to be free from the confines of that tiny box of MY past, I will be free as I free others from theirs. I will fly higher as I allow others to have their wings. I am released as I release others.

Be willing to see them through fresh eyes and let them all fly, and YOU will skyrocket beyond your wildest imagination!
