"If
your
everyday life seems poor, don't blame it; blame yourself; admit to
yourself that you are not enough of a poet to call forth its riches;
because for the creator there is no poverty and no poor indifferent
place."
~Rainer Marie Rilke
Good
morning!
When I was
21 I read Rainer Marie Rilke's book,
Letters to a Young Poet. This one small volume contained some of the
best advice I ever received for living my life. I have made a habit of
re-reading it each year. It only takes an afternoon, and I
think my entire copy is highlighted by now!
Rilke
has a way of
really challenging us to take responsibility for our lives. He
confronts us with many of our own "mind games" and he challenges us to
move past them. If you haven't read the book, I wholeheartedly
recommend doing so as one of the best things you can do for yourself
this year. It is a series of letters between Rilke and a young poet
where he shares advice on living a full life. Although
written
many years ago, the advice is timeless. I have given the book as a gift
many times, and have yet to find a bookstore that does not have several
different copies on hand.
So
often we blame
outward circumstance for our inward feelings. Rilke challenges us -
"Don't blame it, blame yourself." He knows that each life is beautiful,
but often we have to call forth the riches. Our life will only be poor
and indifferent, if choose to
let it be so.
Your
Turn:
You needn't a poet or artist to "call forth
the riches
in life." All you have to do is realize everything is right here and
right now. Take a fresh picture. Change your perception. Count your
blessings instead of your obstacles.
Your
affirmation:
Each day I uncover the many riches in my
life.
