Tibay Trans4orm March 2014 Vol 1 | Page 6

Shout out to all our readers in the U.S., Germany, Malaysia, Mexico, France, Hungary, Italy, India, Pakistan, Nigeria, Canada, the Philippines – we see you! Thank You! I’ve been enjoying the pleasant aroma of flowers as I take walks . . . the alluring fragrance immediately pulls me in. It’s so awesome that the flowers have such a pronounced scent even in this Winter season. I’ve also been enjoying the fragrance of people as they bud and blossom in their personal and professional arenas – from getting married, to becoming new authors, new business owners, to awakening to self. It’s exciting to witness progress! March . . . Spring begins . . . . the world sets aside time to celebrate women . . . As we step into March, what does it look like for you? What fragrance are you giving off, even if you’re in a personal winter? Hopefully, whatever state you’re in, you will take time to be grateful; give Letter from the Editor attention to, and perhaps, even prune things and people as needed. Pruning is not necessarily a pleasant task, but it’s necessary, and the end result is one of beauty. As you give yourself permission to prune, trim, bud, and blossom, you’ll find yourself walking in new territory, experiencing new places and new people. Know as you come into potentially unfamiliar or undeveloped territory, you’ll need to exercise different mental, emotional, physical muscles, and sure, it can seem daunting at times. But consider that the journey is tailor made just for you. I’m reminded of the beautiful imagery of jasmine tea blossoming as it’s placed in hot water and the delicious fragrance that followed; wow! Just like the jasmine tea, when we’re exposed to seemingly, hot, ‘pressure’ situations, we bloom and give everyone an opportunity to experience our delightful fragrance. Happy Spring! We salute and honor you for being you! Tibay Trans4orm Magazine, Life a Full, Authentic Life | March 2014 6
