Ch-Ch-Changes

Change is an inevitable part of life. As one of my high school teacher use to say "The only thing that stays the same is the fact that everything changes.". I rolled my eyes at the statement then, but today I realize the truth in those words.

There are lots of changes happening in my neck of the woods - some are very pronounced, others go seemingly unnoticed, some good, some bad, some easy to make, others harder to make. In the midst of all the chaos that accompanies change - I find myself growing, stretching, opening myself up in ways I never envisioned.

In years past, I would have sought to avoid change - scrambled to keep my world just the way it was - holding on to habits, relationships, etc. that were harmful/hurtful - just to avoid the change. Now, I see the beauty in letting go. I've let go, I've grown, I've change. And I feel at peace with my choices.
