It Was Just a Thought

January 6 Dawn

Nothing real can be threatened.  Nothing unreal exists.
You are allowed to change.

And you don’t need to explain to another single living soul your reasons for doing so, or ever apologise for choosing another path.

You will wake up.

You’ve probably heard people say that the relationship break up was because, ‘They had changed’, or ‘I had changed’ or, ‘They weren’t the person I married/fell in love with/met, we wanted different things’.

This isn’t a post about special relationships. Well, that’s not really true, it is about the longest relationship you ever going to have, the one with yourself.

Ever wanted to break-up with yourself?

Your old ways.

Your old beliefs.

Your old values.

You’re allowed. Permitted. 100% okay.

Why would you keep to a path that no longer fits who you have become?

You can turn around. Walk away. Make better plans.

You can quit a path. Even the one you planned so long to take.

You can change your path. Walk ones never trodden.

You don’t ever have to stick with something because others expect it from you.

If you’ve changed your mind, the world you cannot do anything but change around you. You’ll be seeing and perceiving it with the new thought, not the old.

You are going to change. You are changing now. You will grow. You will develop. And, yes, you will mature. You will have new experiences that waken you to a new way of living your life.

You can make alterations. You can break up with ideas and plans because they aren’t what you want anymore.

You can tear it apart, rip it up, release it, let it become something else.

You can destroy it. Bin it. Forget about it.

You can torch it, take it a match to it.

Break it open and then close it down.

You are going to shift. You will shatter the old to make way for the new.

It may look like a devastation and a wreck, as you rearrange and put the new way together.

It doesn’t have to look this way, but it normally does.

A period of unrest because of the undoing.

You are allowed to change, and by heck, you are allowed to grow and be happy.
