There are times in one’s life where you have to be as the PHOENIX. Yes, you must rise from the ashes and pursue your DREAM, YOUR PASSION. Your existence, your experiences sometimes have to change with the TIDE OF EVENTS.

In Greek mythology the PHOENIX is a long lived bird that cyclically regenerates or is otherwise born again. The PHOENIX rises from the ashes of its predecessor. It is renewed and reborn.

This process can also be part of the human journey. There is sometimes resistance to your way, or there is sometimes a rejection to your perspective. So then it may be time to be as the PHOENIX and rise from the ashes and begin anew. There is no shame in approaching your journey as such. You must keep your integrity, yes your DREAM may have to alter but this is the precarious way of the journey. The goals sometimes have to change due to the change in the surroundings.

The PHOENIX is reborn many times as you can be. Rise from the ashes and show yourself your willingness to alter your goals and survive. Have the courage to be humble in doing so. With this in mind one can withstand any storm and rise from the ashes.

The PHOENIX is a symbol, a representation of; resourcefulness, ingenuity, originality and imagination. Yes, to be a PHOENIX one possesses these characteristics. Also to be as a PHOENIX one should possess the basic traits of an open mind, empathy, humility and the essential quality of listening.

BE A PHOENIX, RISE FROM THE ASHES WHEN YOUR PATH IS BLOCKED AND FIND A NEW AND BETTER WAY TO ACHIEVE YOUR VISION.
