Change

Change is a reality that began with creation and continues seamlessly to the present day, What about the changes occuring on our planet? 

The changing weather conditions along with the seasons and the variety of thriving organisms are more prominently noticeable.  

Do people express change too? If we look at a pregnant mother, we can notice many changes. The mother’s hormones change, her body changes. The body creates a healthy environment for the baby. This is a positive transformation culminating in the birth of numerous beauties.

Let’s also look at our emotions. As we grow, our fears give way to curiosity or our anxieties evolve. Even our conduit to  happiness changes over time.While, a book our mother reads or a small piece of chocolate would make us happy when we were young, the things that make us happy change as we grow older.

As with everything, the beautiful and beneficial aspect of change is desirable. Detrimental change can harm both our temporary, worldly and our eternal life. We need to run to the door of repentance, to the True Beloved.

I once heard a statement from a psychologist: “If I had believed that people cannot change, I wouldn’t have done this job.” Some things may change over time, but it is a great misconception to expect change to come to us without changing ourselves. We must change by developing, making effort, and staying on the right path so that we can ultimately arrive at a beautiful rose garden.

I hope to see you along this journey.
