As a kid, I always liked the rain. All the changes in seasons. Moving to the desert was especially hard, with rarely any difference for months, not even a cloud. Now, I have mixed emotions when the rain comes, which is so rare. I think now, what about them? who are out there in this pouring of water.

Have you ever had a major shift like that, positive or negative? I'm not saying it's either but life shifts? How did you make peace with them?

I've learned to go with the flow....
Change can be a good thing, and usually is...

Life would be awful boring if things never changed.

I'm talking about a major shift in conciousness. There's a touch of sadness with this new awakening, not being to be able to look at something in the same way again. And somehoe, wishing, it could go back to the old. There is such a thing as knowing 'too much' at times.flowerforyou

Hey Reg!!!

I would gladly share/send you some of the rain we have, or swap for some warm sunny days!

Hope you are feeling better today!

Okay, it's about homeless people ebing out there in this downpour. I can't enjoy it anymore...thats the shift. Please don't say that they chose that life, not one that I know is not trying to make their life better.

So was I.

And I don't think you can ever learn too much.

With that learning comes somewhat of a loss of illusion, a lifting of curtains, a dropping of veils.

Finding out that the Wizard is just a man behind a curtain pulling levers and turning wheels can be a little unsettling. But it leads to a heart, a brain, and some courage that you never knew you had.

I take change with arms wide open. Now it is the little changes that I don't like.

Little shifts...thats it. Life is all change, nothing is constant. Just when you think it's all settled, something happens. Life is....

And you can't dance in the rain without getting a little mud on your shoes.
