There are only a few things in this world we can all really expect to be able to count on - Death, Taxes, & CHANGE!
These are all equally inevitable and unavoidable, yet many people exert vast amounts of energy evading them.
I "get" the motivation to "cheat Death" . . . That's one cause I'll join without much thought . . . So I try to watch what foods and drink I consume and am careful while driving and how Ilive my life . . . I don't feel ready for that "Ultimate Change" because I think I have a LOT left to do while here.
Some folks get great thrill from cheating taxes . . . That might be fun but stands a good chance of facing the music in the form ultimate clash with the government. I think that if you don't want to pay the taxes you only have a few valid choices . . . Move to a place where the taxes are lower (and likely the services and protection of your way of life will be less secure) or join the politicians and see what you can do about legally decreasing taxes.
Cheating change itself is a complete exercise in futility. We do this in many ways, and it's seldom pretty.
There's disappointment, fear, denial, anger, PAIN, and a whole slew of emotions that emerge at some level with each and every change . . . and the real sentiment is: "Why can't things just stay the way they have ALWAYS been?"
Because in this world if there were no change, the whole system stalls into doldrums and ultimately dies.
Change creates opportunity for GROWTH.
Change offers a chance to move on - TOWARDS better/different things.
Change keeps us entertained.
Change brings new people and relationships into our lives . . .
and
Change removes some people from our lives.
In yesterday's homily, our priest said that change offers the chance to re-set the clock . . . or flip the hour-glass and begin anew.
Keep yourself in POSITIVE FLOW and celebrate change - I find it exciting as I consider the possibilities.
Best,
b
