Look to the left,
Look to the right,
Look up and look down.
Changes, changes
Everywhere I look, I see changes all around.
Go on close your eyes or just blink, something has changed in that brief little moment.
Even if it was just a millisecond in time.
Ah just look at that, the words that I’m writing have suddenly changed your thoughts. It’s introduced a concept that maybe wasn’t there before.
Now, changes are happening all the time.
From the seasons of year to the weather and the tick tock of time.
To the workings of our bodies that transitions not only on the outside but from deep within.
Look left,
Look right,
Look up and look down,
Changes, changes,
Everywhere you look, there are changes all around.
Change is inevitable and can happen at anytime…
It can bring new aspects and be a wealth of good
Or seem to strip away something that we just wanted to hold onto.
We can bend and bow to adapt to these changes
Or become stiff and ridged and unwilling to move.
At the core of it all what seems to hold true is: our need to find balance, an equilibrium, that spirit level that keeps you being you and me being me.
It’s funny how when we feel that balance is in sight, something comes and tips that balancing scale to one side.
Looking to the left,
Looking to the right,
Looking up and looking down,
Changes, changes,
Everywhere we look, there are changes all around.
What do we do? What can we say? How do we encourage each other? How do we know when to embrace the changes or when to stand firm and not move?
In all honesty, change is inevitable and cannot be avoided. It can happen at anytime to you, to me and to us.
The one thing that should be at our core is that whatever happens, whenever it happens, to remain true to our purpose and reason for being. Hold fast to our calling and what makes you, you and me, me.
Peace ✌🏾
