Sometimes, people go on a journey together and that journey reaches a destination. The destination may or may not be what each wanted, but it is a destination. These people may walk away from each other with memories of this journey and never speak again. Or, they may embark on a new and different journey with a different destination. Some of these journeys take years, even decades and some, mere days. We may only embark on a single journey with a given individual or experience a lifetime of them.
I believe that, often times, people are brought into our lives or those already in our lives change roles for a reason… to lead or accompany us on a journey. I find myself at a crossroads where a number of journeys are ending and a few are just beginning (mostly facilitated through the ending of others). I haven’t found myself in a position like this since I moved to California 10 years ago. There aren’t many things that I am “in the middle of.” In some ways, this makes me sad, but I can mourn for these journeys that have reached an unsatisfactory destination and celebrate those that have come to a positive conclusion. I can also look to the future with hope.
Hi Nicole,
I understand how change can be really hard to move with. I’ve discovered change happens whether I want it to. With the major changes in my life, I’ll take moments and think about how these changes have affected me as a person. Despite some of these changes were good for me, I really like it when my life is boring and there is no drama.
I hope your changes in life make you happy.
Take Care,
Kelli
