Be patient
while in pursuit of change.
Nature is never in a hurry and everything unfolds as it will.
Nature doesn’t agonize over the ifs and buts, the should’ves and could’ves
Because they don’t exist.
Acceptance is the only way through life.
Adaptation the greatest tool for survival.
Be patient
while in pursuit of change.
Your frenetic ways won’t change the outcome.
Your willing answers to appear out of thin air a waste of energy.
Control isn’t always in your hands.
Go outside. Look farther than the end of your nose to the horizon and beyond.
Go outside. Breathe deeply and appreciate the quiet spaces that offer rest between actions.
There.
In the soft lull where wildflowers bloom in the decaying body of a winter-killed animal
Is where the birth of innovation occurs.
There.
In certain uncertainty is where calm and clarity reside.
You will find the way through only when at last you surrender to the ebb and flow
The ebb and flow
You will renew the chapters of your life just as the ocean rolls and recedes across the land
Through lows and highs of the tides
Live your life.
Through lows and highs
Such is life.
To end this post, one of my favourite quotes and personal practices:
Solvitur ambulando. “It is solved by walking.”
