Everything Changes….
Everything changes, nothing stays the same.
On my way to my Friday morning meeting, I was upset about a current situation. And then I realized that it is exactly just that, a current situation. Everything is in a constant state of motion, and just because something is one way today, it doesn’t mean that it will stay that way. In fact, it will never stay that way. Tomorrow it will be a little different, and next week it will be totally different. Come next year, I will hardly remember my current situation. I will have another current situation that I will be working on. I intend for that one to be better than this one.
I have decided that I am going to change my current situation. It is going to change regardless, but I have decided that I am going to be part of that change. It is all energy, and energy can change at the drop of a hat. With one smile, you can change the day of a stranger, and you can even change your own day. So I am going to smile. Negative energy has a hard time lingering in a positive environment. I am not going to cry, I am not going to be angry and upset. I am going to recognize it, and smile. Create positive energy, so all of that negativity will have to go off to someplace else! I also have the ability to neutralize energy, so any angry bits left over don’t stand a chance.
People often get so wrapped up in what is going on, myself included, that we forget that it is only temporary. Sometimes we just need to take a minute, step back and look, take note of how we feel, and start thinking about what we do want. Having an unpleasant situation is only an indication that things need to change, so we need to identify what it is that is so unpleasant and figure out how to go about changing it. Sometimes it is as easy as just smiling and being in amusement, other times it is not as easy and we need to make some drastic changes, such as quitting a job, ending a relationship or deciding to finally kick that bad habit. Never the less, knowing is half the battle, and taking steps to improve can only be of benefit.
Everything is in a constant state of movement, you just have to know how to move in the right direction. It may not be easy, but it’s a start.
I love this, very well said. Thank you for the reminder, your absolutely right the one thing in life we can count on is change. Things will always change, it’s inevitable. But as you state the question is whether or not we want to participate in that change. Your right we have the power to direct change in a direction we want, we just don’t realize it.
