How Do You Move Through Change? Alive and Thriving?

We have the power to recreate ourselves. Even joy and love can be expressed in a new way if we allow ourselves to grow.

We need to learn to evolve in a quick way so that we can move into each moment alive and thriving.

When we arrive at wonderful ‘enough’ we keep it that way. We think it’s the best it’s going to get. How do we know? We make love in a certain way, we drive to work, we fall into the same routines. Even though we bitch, we like the old way. We are capable of learning but we have told ourselves a story, “When I keep doing it this way, I get this result.” Until we don’t.

What if? “Do I know how to drop and roll if I need to?” Tomorrow you may need to create yourself in a new way or be left behind. That can be painful when it happens upon you. Are you going to be a poor character in a nasty, negative story? “What has the world come to?” Having to live your life in a new way, whether you like it or not?

Like the Chinese curse “May you live in interesting times.” Those times are interesting because they are growing you in very painful ways. How can I find new ways that allow me to move through my life with grace and ease in a way that is better than yesterday? Calm, assured, with strength of purpose?

Spirit will always grow us. It will tug at our sleeve, whisper in our ear, show us new ways to do things. Recognize the same old ways that are not working that well. Are you letting yourself explore new ways, just in case? Those hardened pathways in the brain can give you the same hardened result … Grow your brain. Find a new way.
