"she felt separated again.
on her own again.
it wasn't that it was bad ~
it just took adjusting."
When we graduate from eighth grade, we feel like we have learned all that has been offered and we eagerly look forward to transitioning into high school. We yearn for new surroundings, new friends, and broadening our knowledge. The same holds true for when we transition to college and then on to master or doctorate levels. We experience this once again as we go to a new job and then hopefully get promoted into a higher position. We look forward to advancement.
We frequently over look the other side of the coin. It takes time to learn new routines, like figuring out which hall way to go down. There are new passwords to learn for lockers, computers or perhaps the private bathroom. The people who welcome us the first some times end up to be those we would want for friends, last.
If we find our selves at a higher level of learning, we may feel like a penny or a nickle wondering how long it will be before change allows us to be elevated to a dime or a quarter. This adjustment period can be difficult emotionally, intellectually, physically, and spiritually.
Unfortunately in this world of duality and constant change, we may have to experience the flip of the coin. What we have anticipated may not be what we receive at all. We may have been hood winked into believing the new situation would be decidedly different from what it now appears to be. Complications settle in as we try to figure out whether to stay or go.
This process of making change can be experienced through education, employment, relationships, and life transitions. The important token to be remembered is that nothing is forever. With each transition, there will be some level of discomfort, but we have options and choices.
While breaking a dollar bill for change, we receive an assortment of coins. These coins have just as much value as the paper money. When we embrace all pieces with value, our adjustments are more durable. Do not struggle or resist forthcoming transactions, as this is like discarding loose change. With each step we take, diligently discover the worth of each segment for it is building a foundation.
