Change.

It be hard, but sometimes completely necessary for ones own sanity.

Each of us move at different paces. We all take steps to change in differnt ways. Usually in formats that we are comfortable with. Change is a shock enough to the system. But sometimes we may need a different perspective. Friends give us that, or at least they try to.

How important is that view is all up to you. Change can be good, but it can be bad just as easily. But one must decipher what is worse...change or no change?

Taking steps and moving forward to see a new space is growth and important on our path of knowledge and truth. How and when we take those steps is up to us.

But to that end we may allow fear to intercept our movement and hold us back. Not the unknown, but the reality of the known can be worse. Leaving ones space to move to another leaves us with knowledge of what is being left behind.

Acceptance of that will help us move forward. Finding room in our mind of how that will effect us in the future is important and should not be overlooked. People assume fear is of the unknown, perhaps or shall I say it can be, but sometimes it can be what is right in front of us as well.

Take reality as it is now...all of it good bad and indifferent...bring your mind forward to what change will do to that, see where that puts you. Reflect, contemplate then choose. Pull from what you know is right, it lives in each of us.

Step forward not with a handful of the past but with a heartful of the future.

Peace...
