Loose Change.

"There is nothing like returning to a place that remains unchanged to find the ways in which you yourself have altered."-Nelson Mandela

There's one thing in life that's evident...Change.

I've noticed alot of change happening...all around me. Women I've known with long beautiful hair...are cutting it all off...people moving clear across the country (as such in MY case)...and let's not forget those that are moving OUT THE COUNTRY...and people who never fathomed the idea of marriage & children are now finding themselves...married. expecting children.

change can be such a beautiful thing.

January 20th will mark another huge societal change (or so we hope) with THE INAUGURATION OF A UNITED STATES BLACK PRESIDENT. if that aint change i dont know what is.

...that being said however...
as much as things change, a lot...stays the same.

sometimes we can never free ourselves from the people who inflict ignorance and selfishness in our everyday lives. i'd like to think that i do not stand for it infecting mine---but i'd be lying. I tell myself each day that "this situation is temporary" all the while i maintain a miserable state of being. i complain (almost) everyday of my days spent m-f, 8-6...every complaint spillt from my lips is volley'd from my friends with a, "gya you gotta quite saying that"

and i come back with...
"i wouldn't continue to say it, if it weren't true"

so what now? be the change right?
yes. in all instances its quite necessary to BE THE CHANGE that you want to see made. and if that fails...leave well enough alone.

...i'm not sure where i'm at on that end...time will tell. meditating & manifesting will tell faster. in the mean time i continue to observe the changes & constants in my life...

peace be...i am that changin, g.
