Not everything that is faced
can be changed,
but nothing can be changed
until it is faced.
James Baldwin
I started a new book yesterday on Audible to listen to while I walk with Charlie – Small Great Things by Jodi Picoult.
The weather is getting a bit nicer, the daylight longer, and we need to get moving!
Nothing makes the time go faster than when I have a good book to listen to.
I was hooked from the first paragraph.
And when I heard this quote as I was listening on my walk, I almost stopped in my tracks. I backed it up a bit, and I listened again as the brief quote spoke to my soul.
I am facing a time of change in my life.
I’m guessing many of us are.
The changes we are going through are vastly different I’m sure.
Mine is career-centered.
Yours might be a relationship change or news about your health.
It could be the death of someone close to you.
It could be a change in the place you live.
Your change might have to do with your children leaving home or returning home, getting married, or perhaps the end of their marriage.
It could be a pregnancy or the ability not to be pregnant.
The changes each of us are going through can be as vastly numerous as the number of us reading this.
If you are going through something that is causing change in your life, I hope this quote resonates with you. I hope it helps you face it.
And when you face it, may you feel empowered, and may this change bring joy and enlightenment and peace to your life.
Cheers & Hugs,
Jodi
