Planting seeds of change...
"The secret of CHANGE is to focus all of your energy not on fighting the old, but on building the new." - Socrates
Life can sometimes put a spin on changes we weren't ready for. But isn't that what change really is?
Change is:
As an overcomer, I have changed through my challenges, like the seasons. At times the changes were slow, like waiting for spring to arrive after a long cold winter. Or, like the days of the week, waiting for the weekend to finally come after a stressful week. While others happened overnight.
Just like how leaves change in the Fall, it takes time. They start to change one leaf at a time and go from faint to a vibrant color. And, change happens at different times for different people in all different places.
The most important part of change is on building the new; focus on the positive of where YOU want to go, who YOU want to be and what purpose YOU want to serve. Be patient with yourself and just BE YOU!
Plant new seeds in your life by taking care of yourself first. Do one thing for YOU before you do something for someone else and watch how YOU CHANGE.
Start each day with a positive statement: "I AM refreshed and ready to start this AMAZING day!"
Change questions into positive statements and watch yourself transform before your own eyes.
Embrace change with a new perspective. Look at each change as a new beginning. A new time for YOUR LIGHT to SHINE!
Pause in nature and reflect on all the positive changes in your life, it might just surprise you!

Change is:
- becoming different
- a transformation or modification
- different from what it is
