There are so many wonderful changes around us each and every day. September seems to be a month of change lately. Change can be scary sometimes but ultimately the world is ever changing and so should our perceptions about life. When I was a child, I resisted change so much, I could get cranky at the slightest alteration of a plan. It's a miracle that I'm so down to earth now. :)
Whenever we are faced with the unexpected, I feel we are being prepared or taught how to flow in greater acceptance of life. It doesn't mean we will move with grace through each moment but we are given the opportunity to look at those areas where change makes us feel uncomfortable.
Whenever I become attached to things, I find that all my plans fall apart. After many years of learning how to "go with the flow", I simply laugh at myself when I get a bit upset about things not going my way. After all, control over the events in our lives is really at best illusionary.
Take a look at how much you are attached to your plans in life. Whether it's a plan for the day, an event, a long term goal you have in mind etc. How flexible are you? When do you get upset? Can you let go of things easily, or does that present a real issue for you?
I found that I became alot happier when I learned to have greater flexibility in my life.
Have a great month! Stay up to date and receive my recent articles by signing up for my e-newsletter. If you haven't signed up, click here.
