Change

I am mindful that no one really likes change.  In fact, it is probably the most uncomfortable feeling that we can experience.  I am reminded daily that while change is difficult it is necessary for our humanness to evolve.  Imagine a world with no change.  It would be colorless and unimaginative.   It would be a stagnant representation of our human shell.

Changing is often a fresh start.   A new way to live and grow.  I know that while I evolve, the relationships around me transform.  Some grow while others dissipate.   I grieve those that I stray away from, but I rejoice in the closeness that others become, learning that the only thing constant in my life is change.

Each relationship that I have ever had has been a gift.   Whether healthy or unhealthy, each has given me the awareness of the qualities that I deserve and pointers on how I can do a better job of being a valuable part of any relationship.   Pain can change you.   The beauty is that we have the choice of taking that pain and turning it into divine wisdom.

So, change the changeable.  Accept the unchangeable and remove yourself from the unacceptable.   The power is in your hands to build onto the new and stop fighting the old.
