Embracing the ALL of Change

Every Wednesday, a creatively inspiring woman I follow online hosts a prompt on her blog page called Wishcasting Wednesdays.

A question is posted about a wish - and readers are encouraged to reflect on the question as it relates to them, blog about it on their own pages, and then support others who have done the same thing by putting energy behind their wishes in the comment section of their blog posts.

This week's question was: What do I wish to embrace? I'm a day late in responding to this prompt, but that's okay ~ I don't think wishes carry the same sense of time that I do.

Right now, I wish to embrace all that Change brings with it. The parts that I like to fool myself into believing don't really have to be addressed - like meeting new people (I'm an introvert and this requires so much energy on my part that I shy from it time and time again), changing ingrained habits (working on auto-pilot is so much easier than remembering how to invest focused effort for long durations of time), delegating responsibilities that may no longer be mine to carry (or releasing them altogether because perhaps they've deluded me into believing I'm simply too busy for Change at this time).

I wish to remember that Change seldom presents itself as a Buffet Table, where you can pick and choose the parts you like and leave the rest for others. And I wish to remember that I've transitioned with Change before, and it always leads me to a better place than the known one I left - and only when the time is absolute right to do so.
