Our society doesn’t make much room for change to be okay. We’re so often told to choose, to commit, to stay the course… we’re told that if we care about something enough, we’ll do whatever it takes to make it work.
Sometimes, this is true — sometimes, we *will* do whatever it takes. And… sometimes, we’ll realize it just isn’t for us anymore. We’ll realize there are parts of us we want to let go of and leave behind. We’ll realize we don’t feel the same now as we used to. We'll realize our ideas and dreams and visions have changed. We'll realize *we've* changed, which might shift how we want to show up in the world.
When we let shifting, changing, and doing something different be okay, we open ourselves up to the opportunity of reconnecting with our truth and our meaning, over and over. Giving ourselves (and others) permission to redefine who we are throughout our lives is freedom.
What part of you doesn’t quite fit these days?
What story isn’t really true for you anymore?
What pattern isn’t serving you any longer? What role are you filling that you might want to examine deeper?
How are you shifting, changing, and growing?
What are you redefining?
And, how are you making room for all of it to be okay?
