Oh, how things change…
Isn’t it amazing how quickly we adapt? What was once completely alien soon becomes common sense.
Change is the nature of our universe, and by extension, the nature of us.
To resist change, to try to control, goes against this. Those who are most fearful, most trapped in ego, try to control situations and people.
This is where things get disharmonious. When the ego clings to control, things go awry. And since change is inevitable, this causes change to manifest in perverted ways – in equal proportion to the amount of control being exhibited.
Surrender to the flow of change. The ego isn’t in control (even though it wishes it was). Revolutionary ideas come from the mysterious stillness within, far beyond the grip of the conscious mind. When they arise, these waves are best ridden, as they can’t be controlled.
Within this universal flow, change must be implemented consciously to maintain harmony. Resistance and unconsciousness creates disharmonious change. Yet even disharmonious change holds potent lessons. So there are no mistakes.
It’s a grand experiment. Eternal flux. The continuous manifestation of infinite possibility.
To cling to anything is like trying to catch the wind within a net. Let it flow through, inhale the experience and continue along your journey.
There’s no need to cling, control or resist. Go within. And at your very core, you too will find that you are the ever-changing changelessness. Nothing is lost. Nothing is found.
With Infinite Love,
