change. happens. FAST.

CHANGE
what is that word???
sometimes i feel like i have no explanation for it.
or maybe its just that there are
SO MANY
different ways to explain it...
so....
i looked it up :)
and......................................
JUST AS I THOUGHT!
what an interCHANGEable word it is.

change

1. to make the form, nature, content, future course, etc., of (something) different from what it is or from what it would be if left alone: to change one's name; to change one's opinion; to change the course of history.

For ME it means becoming someone different,
going somewhere new,
believing in something great,
looking through anothers eyes,
feeling someone elses pain,
realizing you ARE wrong,
making it right,
and Knowing that EVERY DAY you WILL change....

you may feel you don't know how to change,
or maybe you don't even want to.
But i know that CHANGE
can be
GOOD :)
no i didn't say easy!
because most times it is SO VERY HARD.
I said GOOD!

now although it took me some time to realize this,
i do feel as though
i've known it all along!

Change for some may mean

pain.sorrow.loss.guilt.hunger.embarrassment.hurt.confusion. & heartache...

the list could go on FoReVeR it seems!

BUT
i have found another list.
one that can only be found AFTER and never before the previous list.
now i have asked and pleaded, pondered and prayed
as to why it must be in this order....
For me there is only one answer.
CHANGE.

upon experiencing the first list above we must learn to change
change how we think.
change how we see.
change how look, and feel and act.
Truly, we must change who we really are
and know that through this change we will become better!

I too have experienced the first list above.
Not like anyone of you have i'm sure
but to my own degree and knowledge.
I know many have gone through much more than i ever have or probably ever will
and some may think my lot is heavy...
But for each of us I do know that if we simply continue on
we will find this second list of Change!

Change is peace.
Change is strength.
Change is hope.
Change is passion.
Change is kind.
Change is good.
Change is LOVE!

Love from a kind and oh so perfect
Father in Heaven
who knows our every pain.
Knows our very hearts and loves us so much
he gives us ways to Change each and every day!

I am just beginning to taste of this second list,
but i do know the more i continue to change and grow.
The more i feel of his Love for me!

You can feel of it to.....
It's simple, just CHANGE :)

  1. Selu, you are the biggest sweetheart! Honestly, that was the nicest comment you left me. Thank you! I loved that wedding blog, absolutely loved it. I even borrowed some pictures for my last post! :)

    Your thoughts on change are inspiring. Anybody can change. And everybody needs change sometimes, too. Change can be scary, but it is so inviting. Through change we can really see ourselves.

    I'm glad you are blogging now, blogging is so much fun! :)
