Change. Something has to change around here. Something IS GOING TO change around here. There are going to me some new changes coming about this week. I have had a change of mind, oh and by the way, my heart has changed the way it feels about something.
You are being transferred, your child is moving away, your investments just plummeted, your childcare provider is quitting, Dr. has you on a new prescription, your partner wants out, your body is stressed out, you want some assurance that you are going to be ok. You want to perhaps know you will be in the same place next week or next year…. it’s “sorta” comfortable there; we know the place well, been there for years. Or, you want to know you WON’T be in the same place next week or next year!
Change.
It has a way of shooting an invisible dart right into the middle of our stomach. You have felt it.
Oh, my God, what “uncomfortable” thing is going to happen NOW? Many times we anticipate that the change will be bad, hard, difficult, scary, require more courage than we have, maybe even money or time away from our normal activities or families.
How did it ever come to be that we tend to have a more negative concept of change than a positive one? Why don’t we immediatley react with ; “Change is coming? Ohhhhhh, fantastic, yet another opportunity for adventure, intellectual and emotional expansion, time for me to discover more about life, science, art, history, politics, psychology, music, or about ME!!!! Hey, I am IN. Give to me, CHANGE!”
It does not matter really, how it came to be that we humans get that feeling in the stomach when we hear the word change, or when we “sense” that change is coming. What matters is that we learn that change is a normal and definite part of life. We can learn to be excited about the changes, instead of frightened of them.
The Unknown…..whoooooo. It can be and often is the best thing that has happened to us in a long time. I remember being so afraid to leave home and my mother when it was time for kindegarden. I was a wreck. That didn’t last long though as I realized school and being with the other children was actually fun! I lived through that change. We all did, lol.
As life progressed we learned that changes came often. Some we liked and some “not so much”. When our bodies changed and matured, we thought that was pretty cool. The young girls “triple A” first bra was a fantastic change. Maybe for the guys the facial hair was a real sign of manhood coming on strong. The teachers changed, the subjects changed, sometimes our homes changed, divorces happened, people died, our ideas about life were evolving.
And today we are here. Wherever that is, and, we have had to learn a lot to get this far. But have we really learned to “FLOW WITH CHANGE”? allow that which is meant to be, necessary for our continued personal growth and evolution, to come to us without causing us anxiety, stress, or fear? Have we finally realized that somehow, on some level, whether consciously or subconsciously , WE have been the ones who have instigated and called for the changes in our lives?
We are the co-creators of our lives. We have “free will” and can think freely whatever we want. Our thoughts are extremely powerful. More of them are subconscious than conscious but either way they have enormous power as they create within us, FEELINGS. You know if you think scary thoughts, you “feel” butterflies (or worse) in your stomach….. you feel nervous, ill at ease, a bit uncomfortable. If you think uplifting, encouraging, empowering thoughts, you “feel” strengthened, you feel capable, positive, good about yourself or your tasks at hand. Thoughts create feelings and FEELINGS CREATE OUTCOMES. In this way you are co-creating with the Universe, your life. You think, feel, manifest. Think, feel, manifest.
Knowing change is likely coming for you again soon, if not already in the NOW, how would YOU like to experience it? Would this be the day, month, year, for you to make a positive, powerful shift from experiencing change as a scary, negative or frighening thing, to one you actually anticipate with open arms , mind and heart? It sure dumps the stress if you go with the flow of what is natural and embrace change, rather than fighting it. You will never win that battle.
When you jump into the FLOW of life, and stop the resistance of what needs to be for your hightest and best good, you will find a happiness, a JOY and a freedom you will LOVE! You will feel lighter, and look brighter, and go places you have never been. Places which will allow you to discover more and more of who you really are; the ESSENCE of YOU. The magnificence of you. The multifacetedness and multidimensionality of you. Wow, yes, it’s all available to us as we evolve, and it takes our willingness to change in order to evolve.
Let go of the fear. Let go of the past. Let go and goooooooo withhhhh the flllllooooowwwwww of LIFE.
Wonders await you that you have not even been able to consider yet….. Yes. They do.
Here we gooooo!
Blessings to you, Jeanne
