We all change...pend how it is and what it is - it's change as there is nothing on this earth that does stay exactly the same.
This is today and there is always a tomorrow.
How we change and what we do in the midst of changes are different to each and every one of us. Some can have cyclic changes and some can have changes that go from something that was a fruitless situation to a productive one. However, for myself change is within. Look at the seasons, right now where I live it's snowing and then in a month or so it going to be spring. There is change but within our own selves when we are challenged it can be a positive one or it can be one in which we think there is a change but we return to our same old routines of thought and we never break out of the old routine that created a situation. Yet there are some things within our own selves that is worthy of sustaining - maybe that is an inner karma of sorts.
Constructing a peaceful adjustment is one in which for myself has always been about attitude. If a change means that it's in order to clean up some of the things, or to deal with what you have at hand - then that is what assists within the change. When you have an authentic and peaceful feeling about oneself - then it's going into a direction of production.
I guess what we wish to do is to see what it is we want to manifest. I was writing or just about to write with regards to a two week situation of training however as of yesterday things have changed slightly. Do I accept it - yes, do I thrive on life has done me wrong - no.
Each person has their own way in which they move their own inner spirit. And as mentioned once some will place blame on others for there own circumstances and then some will come to some realization that it's really not about anyone, nor is anyone going to do what is necessary to get the goal that is desired except our own determination. I came to accept a few things here on the Internet and as well I came to make some choices as to bringing the numbers down on my blog as I came to one persons blog that was just writing with no feed back. To me that was so different and yet it was interesting - but we all want and desire to have some feedback. Within this area of change - we all look at it from different vantages. We all are living in different corners of the land.
What we do and how we do it, is something that is relative to our own state of being...
When we get to the point where we are unwilling to change anything about ourselves, we stagnate and become bitter, hateful people, from what I've seen in my experiences. "Seek and ye shall find," so constantly keep seeking. Don't just find one thing and quit. There are many things to find, in my experience.
ReplyDelete"We all are living in different corners of the land. " I think this phrase is ESSENTIAL for each of us to internalize if we are to ever become a world at peace. We ALL have different perspectives. That doesn't make any of us wrong...or more right than another person. It is just different.
ReplyDeleteI have about three people on my contact list who very rarely say anything...they just come to look...that's OK for now, but I often wonder if they think I am an idiot or they are intimidated or shy or well lets just say it makes me curious *grin*
ReplyDeleteAbout change, I once said, nothing in life stands still, even the trees sway...
Flexibility and tolerance. There are many paths to the goal, maybe we will meet along the way.
ReplyDeleteI always have believed that change is good for the soul. Being stuck in a rut and fearful of working one's way out, or simply not motivated for some reason to go with the flow of a change is unhealthy ... at least that's what I think! I always feel so much better mentally and emotionally when I am able to seek change, or just deal with it as it happens. I like that feeling of being able to be flexible enough to accept changes in life. Interesting thought provoking blog.
ReplyDeletesometimes I don't visit my friends as often as I should, or stop to read and comment too much. I am sorry if I have made you feel that I don't care, because I do.
I agree with what you are posting here Jack. I remember reading something to the effect of man, being made reasonable, and so a thinking creature, there is nothing more worthy of his being than the right direction and employment of his thoughts; since upon this depends both his usefulness to the public, and his own present and future benefit in all respects. I hope whatever you think about determines or rather indicates your fate in life. Have a fantabulous week!!! Take care and God bless.
ReplyDeleteyour blog caught my eye this morning due to the fact taht at home, and at work, a lot of change is happening. at work, the change is being met with strong resistance by some who are opposed to change eventhough the "changes" are going to accomplish their said goal. Your right about the inner kharma thing too. If you are at peace with what you are doing, and are doing it for the right reason, the present and future changes will absolutely be productive. The moment you let frustration turn into negativity and stop focusing on the solution of change at hand, is when things start to get messed up.
ReplyDeleteI look at it this way. We cannot control anything in this world. We cannot control anyone in this world. The only one true thing we actually have control over 100% of the time is HOW WE THINK. So, that is the question I ask myself every time a "change" becomes difficult. I have often realized through this introspection, that it's not the brick walls and boulders (situational details) in my way while i stand at that fork in the proverbial road, it's whether or not I am thinking the right way and clear enough to see the solution to the challenging changes at hand. My husband always makes fun of me because when i find myself being negative or let someone elses actions bug me to the point of frustration or anger, I some times physically just "shake it off". I have spent way too many years letting others control how I think. So, as he laughs, I feel better, and we just keep moving on...
Sorry for the ramble. I guess in a paragraphed size nutshell, I was trying to say, I agree! ;)
Jenna xox
I just arrived home and as many of you know I have been waiting to see if I have the job that I have done in Edmonton. So I will be back. As I have a few things I must do right at the moment.
ReplyDeletePeace to everyone and have a great day!
change is a constant like death and taxes
ReplyDeleteWoooooooooooo!!! High 5 Jenna!!! I totally agree!!!
ReplyDeleteJenna it's been a long time in seeing you. I was not sure if there was something I did wrong or otherwise. See I am human too! :)

You have obviously learned how to rise above things and as well it's a contrast to my ideology but perhaps is should be amended! You’re not writing so much about desensitizing but more of really living within your own self-cognitive. Or basically you’re just doing it the way that you do it best. Jenna not many would write something as such and this is not a ramble in any stretch of the imagination.
Hugs back to an old blogging friend that I am amazed to see.
And some do forget to file there taxes - gotcha Karyn! :) Mainly politicians it seems...:)
ReplyDeleteYou know I enjoy your writings - I do believe in change. I guess it depends on the circumstances. Think about this if I may. There is not one thing that stays the same on the earth the picture above is of my own when I was on an excursion to the mountains and near the place was a anthropology museum. I found that when I made that shift in my life there were some good things as well as some rather bad things that came about. But most of all there was a change. As well, in relation to chat in life - a tree, a rock yes a rock over a long period of time, and anything on this earth changes and mutates.
ReplyDeleteIf there is something that I can read and feel that I have something to offer I do, but at the same time there have been people that I have blocked. As I had opened the door to a few that wished to talk while I was living in Edmonton. I could call anywhere in the world and I would talk to a few. Seemingly there have been some that just like to read but it makes me curious but in this day and age it's the internet. Sometimes blocking is a good thing in the past 30 days I have had 15 people request to be a contact and Dp, I don't accept as much now especially when it comes to guys without pictures as sometimes in a non transparent manner there are ones that are just trying to get in to cause some disorder and some are very good "ITs" out there. So I keep it safe and I am relucant to change from writing as I do, but I think that we all do this to some extent.
ReplyDeleteBut I have added a few people and relinquished some friendships - hence I am human and this is only one part of my life. The other is going to other peoples sites and making comments as best that I can if it's relative. Honest to God.
"Frozen smile form and then do return" :)
Differences are good, you gain from it and learn from other people. Ironically I have literally learn much from some of the people I am connected with. Yet I am not a hermit, just for myself right now it's still rather cold in the evenings and I could be writing a book or watching television. But as I have just moved back here I find that I am adjusting back to where I love. "All corners of the world". Yet with some reality to this there are people that are not on here for any intention other that malice. I would rather look and write along with people that pursue the betterment in life.
ReplyDeleteJenna is a very nice lady married and all and way back I used to see her and I went to here blog and the lady has it going...as do you with your writing of last night!
ReplyDeleteCal you said it all. If I can mention last night I tried to get into your blog. For some reason I wouldn't but you are someone that is really a person I can relate too. These words for some are ideals but I believe in walking the talk. There was a time I was bitter, never hateful of people, but I have had my experiences. But I never surrendered to hate, I just knew that time gives the allowance for that door to open for change.
ReplyDeleteChange is not only inevitable but necessary, I think. As several have already stated, to change is healthy and to refuse to change is to stagnate and become pretty miserable people.
ReplyDeleteI usually try to comment on any blog I read. If I fail to do so, it usually means I got interupted and meant to go back and comment later and forgot to.
So well put Norma...
ReplyDeleteglad to be back in touch initiative. your one of my top two favorite people on here. I'm just swamped in a goodway I guess.
ReplyDeleteSuccess to you this week,
Jenna
