I know that the only constant is change. I am learning how to go with the flow of Nature, which has constant change. I call on Nature to be my teacher.
I watch as the last dead leaves from last autumn cling helplessly to the sleeping trees of winter. I recognize they are afraid to let go. I observe the winds of change come in relentlessly until it is futile to cling to the now dormant branches.
Sometimes, I feel as if I am one of those leaves.
I feel myself let go of old patterns of beliefs that are now irrelevant for this time and space. I release old thoughts that fail to serve me.
I feel myself go into a freefall as the winds of change carry me to my next destination. I am learning to let go and allow what is to take care of me.
As I am tousled to and fro with the other leaves of the past, we learn to enjoy the playful breeze. I realize that change can be fun. I realize that the breeze is playing with me. I start to enjoy being tousled about like a child rolling in the dried leaves. I am starting to turn change into a game.
As a leaf, I get to rustle around on the ground. As the seasons change, I feel the snow come and cover me up like a blanket. The rains of spring turn me into a soggy mess. I start to disintegrate into compost. I become something new. I become soil to nurture new plants.
Today, I am learning to go with the flow of nature as I soak up all the wisdom that the universe is teaching me.
Self-Reflection Questions:
- How can I more fully let go and trust that Nature has my back?
- How can I more fully change into my next greatest version of myself?
- How can I have more fun with change?
