| life is fragile and unpredictable and things can change from one moment to another: You go to bed being a child and you awake having grown up You wake up smiling and go to bed sobbing You go to bed trusting someone and wake up disappointed You wake up frustrated and go to bed thrilled You wake up being strong and go to bed feeling helpless You go to bed in love and wake up alone You wake up with no hopes and go to bed trusting the future You go to bed fascinated and awake disconcerted You go to bed joyful and wake up in pain You wake up hating and go to bed forgiving And vice versa. Because life is fragile and unpredictable and things can change from one moment to another. Whether if we like it or not Even when we want to fool ourselves, we end up learning that this is the only truth we know for sure. No matter if this sounds paradoxical and contradicts the previous assertion This used to scare me very much. I felt victim of chance. I felt swindled because nothing would last forever, because nothing would be as I expected, because nothing would be constant And this continued to happen till I started to understand that maybe this could be an odd blessing which could be meant to create awareness and mindfulness. A gift in disguise that could make feasible to see tragedies coming to an end and suffering giving way to peace Till I started to understand that (just like fear does, just like ache does) hope and bliss also come from change ...till I finally understood that all this forms the obverse and reverse of existence |

I think most people don't like change, but it's just a fact of life and nothing to fear. When my mind starts to make me afraid, I'm glad I have God to hold my hand and everything will be OK!
I understand your words. Beautiful and also realistic. That's life. I have said it in my last card: Time is a Healer. And this is also true.
lovely greet

Right there with you, dear. I used to be so afraid and stuck in resistance. When navigating the sea of life, all we can do is learn to surf and bathe in the sun. ♥
Well said...and you just gotta roll with it.
Lovely photo too!

As you say, everything can change quickly, but in the changes can come a blessing. Thanks for the reminder to quit fighting the changes and to look for the good in them.
Beautiful photography and lovely contemplative post ~ Enjoy the week ~ ^_^
Life is all about spirals and going from balance to imbalance. Sometimes I remember this.
Thought provoking post, visual peace. Thank you..
I've grown to love the yin/yang...the hot/cold...the joy/sorrow flip flop of emotions. I think it makes us alive and real. Love how you've said it here.!
Beautiful words Zena. I think life works and exists through changes even if we do not like them but probably they are in some way life's gifts and blessings. I like your photographs for composition clearity and vivid colours. They are like healing moments. I hope you are well. Big hugs to you!
