You might be critical of others or their ideas which may make you less tolerant of new and differing ideas today. It could be that this desire to judge things may be the result of your need to feel better about yourself, for by not being open to things it may be easier to feel that your ideas are a cut above the rest. Maybe today you can reflect on what it is that you are afraid of being more receptive to. Asking yourself this could not only give you insights into what you might need to work on within yourself, but it might also allow you to see that the more you shut yourself off from the ideas that surround you, the less rich your life will be. If you can think of your life as something that really only evolves through the bounty that exists around you, you may more readily accept the diversity that you encounter each day.

Letting go of our preconceptions exposes us to a world full of wonder. When we shut ourselves off from what is new, it is often because we are afraid that if we release the hold our present ideas have on us, we will lose part of our own identity. It is through this search and understanding of things that challenge us, however, that we are able to transform who we are. By opening yourself up to the variety of ideas that abound today, you will cultivate a greater awareness of yourself and your life that will grow and expand.
