If the moon can change, so can you
And other truths that come to be (Happy Full Moon)
Understanding that life is cyclical and subject to change removes the veil of comfort and distraction that we make for ourselves.
When we see life the way that it is and the way things change without reverence for our plans we can begin to understand that everything is in a constant state of flux, even us.
We have seasons, personal summers, personal winters. This can help us stay the course knowing that whatever we are currently experiencing, will change, along with ourselves.
Rest in that, delight in that, be grateful for that.
When you accept the very nature of life to be a cycle of death and rebirth, fall & spring, you can accept the current season of your experience.
Accept & appreciate, but never get too attached.
Knowing that at any time, it could all change, and you can change too.
How many times have you been attached to who you thought you were and what you thought that you wanted?
Isn't it nice that things change?
Isn't it nice that you are capable of change with each passing moment?
Every moment is new for you to wake up to life and consequently yourself.
Don't waste time with words and phrases that you designed to keep yourself consistent, safe.
Be open to who you are, who you could be, and what life is unfolding before you.
Are you a full moon, waxing, waning, or new?
Everything you see is temporary, don't forget that you're not exempt from the ephemeral dance of existence.
Rejoice in that, marinade in that, let it wake you up to finding what joy and beauty you can before it's gone.
I love a full moon, I can hardly describe how seeing it makes me feel.
I have several “best moons I've seen” and the one that I was thinking of last night was from a night drive to the Grand Canyon and the full moon coming up between the mountains in Arizona.
I gasped.
I usually gasp at the moon.
I hope you are also gasping at the moon, in awe of it's beauty and the beauty of being alive on this ecstatic planet at an interesting intersection of time.
And if you can't see beauty, there's always comedy 😅🤣, more on that later.
