Embracing Change

As we make our way through the crisp, cool autumn days, I find myself being thankful for the warmth of the sun and the rustling crunch of fallen leaves under my feet.

A few weeks ago as I was trudging from car to door, wrestling with two extra large bags, my mind ticking through the things I'd need to do once I walked through the door, I paused, taking a deep breath ... and recognized a smell that triggered a distant memory - the aroma of autumn.

It was very distinct, and I don't recall noticing before how deeply the scent affected me. I stood for a few moments, feeling the cool air on my face, breathing deeply and smiling as I allowed memories to pass through my mind like my own personal slide show!

It is easy to become distracted by the demands of daily life. Often, we go through the motions on auto-pilot, only partially conscious of the richness of all that surrounds us. In recollection, I recognize there have been times in my own life that I preferred not to be fully conscious as a means of avoidance, choosing to continue on in situations that no longer served me well, because the alternative meant change. And typically, we humans are not big fans of change! However, avoiding making necessary changes in our lives can significantly diminish the quality of our lives.

Sometimes, in order to be fully present and to truly immerse ourselves in the depth and beauty of what life can offer, change, along with its temporary discomfort, can have a profound positive impact. Moving through discomfort, we grow to become the better person we are intended to be. Embracing change by clearing out emotional baggage and releasing the situations, people, jobs and habits that don't enhance our lives allows us to make room for joy, richness and living fully.

Do you have emotional housekeeping that needs tending to? Are there cobwebs in your life that need dusting away so you can feel the warmth of all that surrounds you? Are you living a life of joy, or is there room for more? My warmest wishes to you in living your best life.
