Coping and growing from Change
I don't do well with change but I'm not sure anyone really does if they're totally honest. Change is hard work! Change can mean big losses, grief, distress and huge uncertainty. Change can also deliver revelations and gifts we never imagined within our destiny. Change is rarely easy but it is always an opportunity.
Doing a little research for myself I found this excellent article by Martha Beck. It's a refreshing reminder to hold the mirror for myself for a change and look deeply to find the gifts in the fog.
This process isn't a walk in the park so be prepared for some prickly gifts. I don't think there's a part of me that's not aching right now and I sure wish I was out the other side. At least this article reminds me to be active and positively expectant that the butterfly within will emerge .... sometime.
For all of you struggling with your own metamorphosis, my positive thoughts are with you and more helpfully, here are the wise words of Martha Beck.
