Coming Out The Other Side Of Change....

   It always amazes me when I find I have come out the other side of change. I don't mean those simple changes as picking a different brand of toothpaste, I mean a life altering change. Some people only defy change as a physical one. Not in my world, I seem to do a lot of transformation of thoughts and actions. Which you think would be a easier process but unfortunately that is not the case. I would rather change tooth paste flavors then look in the mirror of my life. Looking at my behaviors and pattern has been no ease task and it has been a long road with many years of inner reflection and outer evaluation but I must say I wouldn't change a thing. I have now come to understand it is a never ending flow of life and cycles and patterns that have lead me to this moment in time. One in which is never ending.
 It is not until you come through to the other side {see Jim Morrison did know what he was taking about}
that you see where you have made the most changes in your life. Some might be physical, others emotional or even spiritual. The biggest is when there is a shift in all three but no matter the change I am convinced it all started with your thoughts and that is where choices and change are born.
  I was just looking back on the past few months and something clicked and I saw them in a very simplest form. "There is always two paths you can choose and it's up to you which way you go. "  I was in awe of what a pure honest statement that is. My thoughts and  My action created choices and each choice was solely up to me and me alone. Like I have said for a while It like testing ourselves. I am not sure what part of ourselves or maybe it is a higher source that plays a role in moving us along the cosmic and physical paths either way it is our moment of change. Over the years I have played with many theories to explain it or explain it away. I have read many books, searched under many rocks and listen to countless others theories as well only to be left with this conclusion.  Its just the Law of Nature. broke down in it most simplistic of ways.  For evolution to happen there must be changes made to the structures of cells and plants oh and that does include people. As much as we are a technological world based on plastic and metals at our base we are organic.  So change must incur for a species to survive but most of all thrive. We choose usually the path of complacence because we know we can survive there. The thought of thriving scares us because we know there we must move with the sands of change. I was told a few years back that I loved change I  "surf the winds of change and there I am the happiest". I really didn't understand that for years well until now.
  Change is fundamental for personal and global evolution. Our world is looking to go on two paths right at this moment in our history. One in which life is based on Technology and Bio mechanics. Where an artificial life will be lead, one in which bees are robots and clones walk where once human tread or One in which we embrace our organic humanness and embrace living in local and global communities with individualism praised and encouraged. There is one other choice you can choose to do nothing and let others choose for you but remember if you do that you still are solely responsible for the outcome because you still made a choice to do nothing. I don't know about you but I am fighting for embracing my humanness and learning to be a fully functioning human and enjoying the fact that I am choosing the path of change with every thought and action. Is it always easy, Hell No. but it is so worth it when you come out the other side. To be able to know you rode out the winds of change, only to come out the other side learning more about yourself and the world around, it almost makes this time in history worth being born in. { I said almost... lol } It's when you realize you have the power with in yourself to make a difference in the world by simply making the best choices for you in yours that you know you have been more then surviving, you have been thriving... what a GREAT feeling that is.....This must be what it feels like to be "ALIVE"......
