1-11-11 is another one of those dates. If you see it as two 11's, it's neat, but if you see it as five 1's it carries that begin again feeling. I have a birthday two weeks after New Years, so I always have that chance to start my year again if I wasn't feeling particularly inspired on the first day of the new year. But isn't every day a chance to start fresh with no mistakes?
If you believe that love is truly the strongest force in the world, and you believe that God loves you no matter what, then every day is a day to live loved. And I believe it is true. It doesn't matter who you are, where you are, what you've done or what has happened to you, God still loves you and wants to be your best friend. AND He is the only connection that is totally safe. That is important because it's critical that we embrace the ugly parts of ourselves we would rather ignore or disown. If we don't, we will end up projecting them on others, and drawing to us the people who bring them up in us. God is the one who can help you untangle your life. Yes, He may lead you to other people for help--no doubt--but He is committed to helping you thrive and become everything you want to be. You are not alone. That is something to celebrate! And a reason to begin again.
