Change comes in all forms and at any given time whether you are ready for it or not. Whether it is a passing of a loved one, a Change in residence, a Change in ones health, or just a Change of heart. Change is all around us. I know Change can be difficult, but in the end, Change must occur in all living things in order for us all to grow. Most times it does not make sense, the Change(s) we endure, but in order for you yourself to grow as an individual we must find a way to accept our Change(s) and overcome. Change can and will, if you let it, make you stronger. Sometimes Change can open ones eyes to new experiences, Change lets you see life through a new set of eyes due to a diagnosis, and most times Change lets one be that positive light to shine for others to see and possibly, just possibly, your Change will help someone else in need accept his or her Change and help hm or her to be stronger because of it.
I myself have had my fair share of Change(s) over the years. And many were not pleasant. But, though they were, at times, tough to go through, I held onto my faith and the knowledge the this too shall pass. Change had to occur in order to get me to the place I am now. A place of strength, a place of positivity, a place of enlightenment, and a place of mindfulness. Through these Changes I became more aware of the things I would and would not accept out of individuals, how they treated others and how they treated every other living thing around us. Life is too short!
Yes, I could have taken the negative roads, the roads that lead down a harder path when these Change(s) occurred. But I made a choice that I would not give into that path because that path was not an option and had no light at the end of the tunnel. Strength, Life, Light and Love were and are the only path for me and I try to share that with my family and friends when they ask or might need a little inspiration.
With that, I attach the below poem I found that can give us all the strength and light we need when it comes to any type of Change in life.
Thank you for taking time out of your day to read a little about Change = Strength. Cheers!
This is an awesome post! Yes, with life there comes change! This is a wonderful and encouraging post! Love it! Thank you for sharing your words of wisdom and your life experience! Here is a quote I found recently “Optimism is the one quality more associated with success and happiness than any other!” We cannot be victorious and overcomers with a defeatist attitude! Positivity is so important! I am truly enjoying reading your blog!

Thank you again, Dawn, for a wonderful Enlightenment! It is almost two years since my beloved husband died. He was my best buddy in life and my cheerleader too. Somehow, I can feel him still cheering me on through many challenges as a widow alone. Our loved ones who have passed to the other side would not want us to fail or be stunned by grief. We take the energy they bequeathed to us and use that for the positives in life.
Keep your wonderful enthusiasm and blogs coming!
All the best,
Your cousin, Vicki

Thank you my sweet and beautiful cousin! Yes, he is watching over you and with you always. That feeling and/or light you feel is most definitely him sending you his love, strength and encouragement. My cousin, Bobby, who passed (due to Cancer) three years ago this week I know is watching over me and his family as well. He and I were very close and at one time he told me or asked me to live and do the things that he will not be here to do. He asked me to live life, enjoy it for him. As like you, I draw my strength and energy from him and others who have passed and I miss dearly.
Sending you light and love my dear!
