The Gift of Change

Too often you mistake attachment for love, or appreciation. 

You attach to a person, a job, a situation or even a worn article of clothing. 

If your life is perfect as it is and cannot possibly get any better, then, by all means, hold on to everything.

Of course, life on Earth is not designed that way. You are here to learn, grow and play. 

All three of these things involve change and release.

To learn, is to add new information and leave behind old, outdated ideas.

To grow is to stretch yourself, physically, emotionally, mentally or spiritually. The change here is obvious and again, may mean leaving old thought patterns and behaviors behind.

To play is to explore, to delight in the world around you. To squeal at surprises and dance to the music of life. To play is to celebrate and enjoy the changes around you, and if you do it often enough, it inevitably leads to learning and growth.

Change is not the enemy. Change is the Angel, who holds a miracle in her hands. Her gift to you, if you choose to accept it.
