“Every human mind is fertile, but only for those kinds of seeds it is prepared for. What is important is to see which kind of seeds our mind is fertile for, and to prepare it to receive the seeds of love.” – Don Miguel Ruiz, The Four Agreements
As this day winds down to the sound of rain hitting the windowsill, I can’t help but reflect on everything that has happened this past 2016. At exactly this time last year, I was on my way to a New Years Eve wedding after work, in Tel Aviv, Israel, and it was also raining just as intensely.
Thoughts of the unknown started seeping through me on the drive to the venue, and I recall thinking, “2016, please be nice to me” – with the hope that the year would present itself with a bit of stability and just a dab of reassurance.
