Change

“If you don’t like it, change it. You’re not a tree.” Words my Tantra teacher used to say. You always have more power than you think. Change is hard and seems to take undue effort and attention. Yet change happens in micro adjustments and big revelations. When we see our unhelpful beliefs and behaviour, we have a chance to question and change our perception of the world. Staying focused on what we can do matters. Feeling powerless and furious is a good start. Channelling that into effective action for change might be easier than complaining. I used to do a lot of complaining. It was just boring and ineffectual.  Creating change is more rewarding than complaining.
