Everything in our world is continuously changing. You can’t stop the waves from moving across the ocean, the breeze from drifting across the plains, or the sun from rising in the east and setting in the west. All of these are forces of nature that are far stronger than we are. But you do have the ability to decide how these forces of nature impact your life.
Instead of feeling overwhelmed by a wave of change in your life, you can choose to ride that powerful wave to a new destination. Don’t fight the power, instead harness it and allow it to propel you toward new opportunities and experiences.
The same is true of a strong gust of wind. When you turn away from it, you are blown backward, and your progress stopped. Instead, turn and face the wind. And if it is an incredibly strong gust, lean into it. You might be surprised to feel that gust actually supporting you rather than pushing you backward. And by facing forward, you can now see what is coming at you. You can even prepare for it, to make the most of any opportunity that is about to fly by.
When you see the sunrise in the morning, look at it as a reminder from the universe that you have been gifted a brand new day. And what you accomplish in that time is entirely up to you. You can greet the day with enthusiasm and appreciation, knowing that today you will set the world on fire. And as the sun sets, don’t curse the darkness that follows. Look at the coming evening as you would the closing curtain after a Broadway play. You made the most of the day that was given to you. Now you deserve a round of applause and an opportunity to rest before the curtain goes up on another day.
Change is simply the nature of our world and our lives. We don’t have control over nature, but we can control how we greet it and receive the most benefit from it. Choose to harness this unwavering power to propel you further along your journey than you ever dreamed possible. Ride the waves, soar on the mighty wind, and embrace the beginning and end of each day for the lessons and miracles that it brings into your life.
