Facing Change

in #inspiration7 years ago

Life comes for us all, and change comes with it. There is no option when change comes, but to go with it. When we fight change it is like trying to swim upstream.

Each stage of our lives unfolds like a unique story that can only be told by us.

Being comfortable seems to be the modern humans number one goal.

To run the race and to feel like we are winning.

To jump through hypothetical hoops that are set my unspoken expectations.

To look around and feel as though we are something unique, but not too much so.

To fit in but also to stand out would be the objective of the game.

To be identified as a player in the game and a piece on the board.

Are we able to change the game?!

Are we able to change the rules?!

Are we able to change ourselves as a piece on the board?!

Can we change expectations that may or may not be set by someone?

Is it possible that others don't actually have expectations for us, but we in fact create the expectations...thinking it is from someone else.

Let us face each day with a clear mind and no expectations.

Let us be free to be and express ourselves the way we see fit.

Let us love ourselves and not fear hypothetical expectations.

Be well! 🙃

Yeti shedding it's coat for spring? Lol. Looks great!

Yep, or maybe the next season of life.

I like the trimmed beard. Looks good! Great post

Thank you! Change is coming.

Looking dapper! "When we fight change it is like trying to swim upstream" - Reminded me of an Alan Watts talk where he was speaking to the "river" or "stream" of life. Some will fight to swim against it, but are still being carried down stream with it... Others will just go with it and let life take them where it will. Then there are those that embrace it and use the strength of the flow to swim with and maybe to the left or right but while using the flow to magnify their efforts. - This was a very simplified recount of the message, but that line you wrote made me think about it.

Can you imagine what would happen if you used the power of the stream to create your life. You may end up in a place that others have never been! Be well.

Exactly! You too my friend!

Looking good yeti! I like it!

Thank you! It felt like it was time. Feels like something is coming...change

Let us face each day with a clear mind and no expectations.

Leave room for the unexpected and live each day to it's fullest. Like the new look! Pretty cool.

Looks good! I'm sure you will let us know more about this "change" soon enough!
