Okay.

A dear friend of mine is an energy healer, and while her daily connection to typical American culture can be spotty (she's never heard of my two all-time favorite tv shows*, for example, and does not text ever), she has a supernatural power to engage multidimensionally in ways that only come to me through great science fiction. 

This is the End and the Beginning, she says. Everything we've known is complete. Experiences, beliefs, lessons, conventions, karma, commitments, vows, systems, cycles ... even history itself. Still our foundation, yet now complete.

And now anything is possible.

We still have to choose. We still have to choose wisely. And, some of those choices still demand unbelievable courage and change. Yet we get to start fresh.

She whittled it into a precise sentence, and while I'm not usually the mantra-kind, I'm loving this one: You are whole, and from that wholeness you can create anew.

Okay.
