Today's Inspiration

by Marie T. Russell, InnerSelf.com

The focus for today's inspiration is:

I choose to expect things to get better.

Listen to audio/mp3 version here:

In order to make a new dream come about, we have to be willing to let go of any limitations we have placed on ourselves and on others, and be willing to expect the best from everyone, including ourselves.

Change, by its very nature, means letting go of the past, of the way things were, and perhaps of the way we have expected them to be.

We must be willing to expect our dreams to come true, or as the affirmation goes "this, or something better".
