.......That is a japanese word for change and that is what has been dictating my life for most of the past year and still does to be honest. When I was younger, I, for the most parts, understood change as a bad thing, though I couldn't always pinpoint why. I feared and rejected change, rarely ever sought it and almost always drew back before it could happen.
“It's not so much that we're afraid of change or so in love with the old ways, but it's that place in between that we fear . . . . It's like being between trapezes. It's Linus when his blanket is in the dryer. There's nothing to hold on to.”
~Marilyn Ferguson
That probably was, what made me reject change, the fear of losing something to hold on too, maybe I'll never know or maybe some time I will, but it seems to be the explanation that fits the best. Over the years smaller or bigger changes happened, whether I wanted them to or not. It came the time, the point in my life where I not only got used to change, no I began to embrace it, to welcome it with open arms. I now truly can say, I may not be totally ready for everything, but I am ready for change!
