Grace and peace be unto you!
As we go about the process of transformation we have time when we realize that we have taken a bit of a side street. Not to any dark or dangerous place but a rabbit trail. It feels good. It smells good. It is aesthetically pleasing yet there is no satisfaction.
It is only in these times that we realize what we don't like in our lives. We begin to understand the things that trigger us and cause us to get off track. We begin to understand our vulnerabilities and weaknesses. While these times are uncomfortable they are necessary for our growth.
I encourage you to get go up on the proverbial balcony of your life and look down over your path. Look at the twist and the turns. Look at the places where you have had to make a complete you turn. Look at the places where you have been on the mountain and the places that the valley was your friend. Look at your victories and your joys. Look at the times that you failed and then the times you succeeded. This balcony view can help you can perspective. Learn what and who to cut out, when.
See in this season of transformation just like summer turns into fall some things have to begin the process of hibernation. Yes, some of your leaves are going to change color. They are going to fall off and you will spend some time in silence. While the silence can be deafening it can also be informative. Use this autumn season in your life to regroup. Get your sweaters out for the winter ahead.
You will not die, just hibernate for the winter. Gain your strength. Shuffle your tribe. Learn some new skills. Winter is coming but it is not here you. Get prepared.
Until tomorrow
#liveBlessed
