Sometimes in life we are unaware of the change that is occurring to who we are as people as it’s happening.
Sometimes the overwhelming ache of a lost love, missed opportunity or life altering event is so great, that we do not realise our ‘evolution’ as it takes place. While it feels, at the time as if it threatens to consume all of the bad as well as the good in us, in fact it’s these periods of ‘growth’ where we actually learn the greatest lessons in life. These thing shape who we are and shedding our skin at such a rapid rate is never pleasant. Like a seedling fighting the sheer inertia and weight of the world on top of it before breaking through to the surface and finding the light, we too are be changed.
Remember it take sadness to know what happiness is. It takes noise to appreciate the silence and absence to truly value and appreciate presence.
All I know is I am ever evolving and I refuse to accept that I am ‘too anything’ in this life like some. I refuse to be too broken. Too old. Too damaged.
I am what I am and that is not perfect but I am happy being me. Yes I make mistakes and I don’t always get it right. All I do know is that the older I get the more comfortable I am in my own skin. I don’t have all the answers but I like this path and it’s working for me.
Lessons in life will be repeated until they are learned.
And,
Sometimes you win……
and sometimes you learn.
