Heraclitus said, “The only constant is change.”  If that is true then change is the only thing (apart from God) of which we can be certain.  It makes sense if we believe that the universe of which we are a part of is always growing and evolving. It also coincides with what Einstein said, “Energy cannot be created or destroyed, it can only be changed from one form to another.” We allude ourselves into thinking that we will arrive at some sort of destination point. We are all so often in a hurry to get there, wherever there is–the job, the relationship, the degree, title, the award, other end of a difficult conversation or decision, etc.  The reality is when we get there, there will be somewhere else to go.  It keeps going.  It is the miracle and the cycle of life that we are constantly evolving.  So even the idea that we are stuck somewhere is an illusion.  The good news is that these ideas all reside in our heads and can be changed–yep even our beliefs are subject to the same laws of the universe as everything else.  The difficulty is when we think that our ideas are God.  We give them that kind of power, it is no wonder we fight the notion that they can evolve.  God is All that Is.  God is in and through everything, there is no need for God to evolve because God is the highest evolution. We are a part of God but we are not wholly and completely God. That means that whatever fixed ideas that we have in between our ears can grow and change as much as our underwear or skin cells, or friendships.  My prayer for us today is that we be willing to step into our fully human experience and embrace how our ideas and therefore our perception and experience can evolve just for today.  Make it a great one!  Peace~Colleen
