Change

Something that we often experience or use so often in a conversation
A life situation that has necessitated a new look and observation
A life situation that may call for an all new interpretation
A point in time that is a stepping stone for next stage of evolution

It may come completely unannounced
It knows no barriers in terms of staying ring fenced
It knows no boundaries of age, community or gender
It does result in the human mind to begin to wonder

It does not really have any sense of time
It may not always occur in phases or sequence
It may call for resources never ever imagined or dreamt
It may present insights that may be life’s greatest learning

It may test one’s patience to maintain sanity
It has been known to make people give up vanity
It may test one’s levels of emotional resilience
It has been known to bring people out of complacence

It is not always easy to face up the storm
Resistance to change is more often the norm
To remain within the comfort zone may resemble security
To create new patterns one needs to face up to reality

One does not need to live a life of denial and defense
One does not need to feel sorry for life’s occurrence
One does not need to live a life full of pretense
One is entitled to acknowledge the role of divine providence

One does not need to lend much credence to other people’s views
As one gets centered one appreciates the fine balance of drops of dew
One needs to let go the artificial shield that no longer sustains
Take a decision to unconditionally act without an eye on the final gain!
