Well... I'm thinking spring might be coming, but it keeps teasing us. One weekend, it's 30 cm of new snow, then it is +10 C and then it is -10 C. Sometimes it's sunny... sometimes cloudy... sometimes warm and springy... sometimes cold and blustery. I never know what to wear anymore. My winter duffle coat is a bit too warm. My regular spring jackets are a bit too cool... So I'm left with a mishmash of layering, trying to find just the right combination of clothing to keep me comfortable.
Mind you, that's how it is in life sometimes too. We don't quite fit in with this or that... and we try to figure out a way to make things work for us. What used to work doesn't work anymore... and we need to find a new way. We need to let go of the old way of doing things, and create something different. Which can be a bit challenging sometimes... but is an act of creativity. Rather than complaining that things are not like they used to be... or not like the good old days... how can we create something different and new in this moment.
That's a challenge for us sometimes... to be open to something new and different. We like the old and the comfortable... that's why it's comfortable. The new.... well, we haven't quite figured that out yet... so we are left feeling our way tentatively... or ignoring it altogether. What are the "old" things you need to let go of? The old way of being? The old way of doing?
