Change, it is one of the tumultuous things in life that we fear as it forces our lives to wind down unknown paths. When looking at the possibility of change that we didn't anticipate our hearts race, our tears flow, and minds swirl with anxiety. It may feel like we are swept up into the heart of a tornado for a while and whisked off to who knows where. Yet, eventually, we land. We dust off our feet and slowly look around to gain our bearings and before long we realize, we survived. The dark swirling chasm of change can cause us to temporarily lose our bearings. We suddenly may not be able to see the light at the end of the tunnel or envision ever escaping the torment of the present moment, but a change like a tornado disappears just as quickly as it showed up. No one is caught in its grasp of uncertainty forever.
Change is also like the spring rains that bring the lush cascading flowers to my garden. It makes the dry dead grass of winter turn into soft carpets of sweet smelling grass. Change brings life, vitality, and newness that we could not have anticipated.
It may seem scary at the moment but chances are good....
