Change is inevitable. It is not something that we can bargain with. It is not something that happens only to other people; change is reality. Accepting this truth is sometimes an excruciating process, and there are many who never achieve it; yet change still occurs. At some point a decision needs to be made that accepting change is the first step in releasing the need for control. As intelligent as the human species is, and yet, the word intelligence is subjective, we are not all-powerful.
How does accepting the inevitable reality of change produce a sense of freedom? Ironically, allowing truth to be truth, regardless of how we feel about it, can be liberating. When we realize that we cannot manipulate everything in our lives, it frees us to stop trying. Let me pause here for a moment and reflect on that statement. When I say "we stop trying," I am not insinuating that we do not work at bettering our lives, but that by accepting change, it frees us to dance with it, instead of fighting.
This concept has been studied and practiced for more years than I can count. It has roots in the ancient world but it holds as true today as it did then. This shows that life, as humans know it, has not swerved in thousands of years. The human condition has no statute of limitations. As long as our species exists,
so too, will the human condition
.
Sometimes, it helps to truly think about the way other life reacts to change. Animals and plants also are subject to its power, but adaptation has kept many species alive while others were extinguished, unable to live with the ever-changing world. If we apply this to our own lives, the analogy can be used as a map to show where and how we shift in order to move along with change. Perhaps understanding change and accepting it may be a life-long journey, but fighting it is a waste of precious time that will never return.
Learning to be mindful of the present and knowing that it is all we truly have is a gift. It teaches us to cherish each and every moment to the best of our ability and to pull from our inner strength, and those around or above us, to help during times of intense struggle. In the end, you will be wiser and strengthened by experiencing life as an ever-changing adventure. Remember the dance; release the struggle.
