One thing I am finding out about myself is I do not like change. It is not the actual change itself, for that is always a good thing, it is the anticipation of the change. The waiting for it to take place. I reach a point that I wish it was just over. It is much easier to adapt to it then.
The waiting, the anticipation is always stressful. It always feels like a pressure cooker waiting for the top to blow off. I think because I am so sensitive to the 'feelings' around me and am able to pick up on them I become stressed.
It can be good and excitement but the body still registers stress.
The body does not know the difference between good or bad, excitement or dread, it still senses it as stress. The body reacts the same way to good and bad stress.
So in the event of change it is the leading up to the change which I find the hardest to deal with. It comes to the point that I just want the change to occur, to be done with, to have the dust settle and be able to move on.
Funny how at my age I am still learning alot about 'me' and how I deal with things.
I know I stay when I should move on because the unknown is so scary. I wait until I am forced to move on and the inevitable change takes me like a wave in the ocean. The tumbling the turning of the water where it is impossible to fight against. The water takes us where it wants to not where we think we should be going.
So at some point in the actual leading up to the changes we know are coming we just need to let the water take us where it will and just go with the flow. For going with the flow is so much easier than fighting and keep the faith.
Keep the faith that we are on the path to where we are supposed to be at this point in life.
Follow the flow and not fight against it.
Just know that it will all be ok and that "they all lived happily ever after"
