The famous saying that we know is that the only thing constant is change.  I have found this to ring true in my life, much to my chagrin at times.  However, the fact that things change does not need to mean that there is no point in showing up for what happens in our lives because it won’t last.  That is black and white thinking of which I have been guilty of many a time.  Being present with what is on a consistent basis is about showing up for ourselves.  It is about being present in our lives whatever may come.  Our souls do not measure our lives by the content.  Our souls measure our lives by the process.  I can choose to show up as a courageous, loving, spirited human being no matter the circumstance.  I can also choose to show up as an angry, irritated, dissatisfied, and impatient human being no matter the circumstances.  Who I am being is what shapes the experience I am having because it creates the eyes through which I am filtering the experience and a measurement of the energy I am expelling.  How I consistently show up shapes my character and defines who I am being.  But even that can be changed, if I am open to allowing in God’s perspective on who I am capable of being.  Those very circumstances that I am not liking can be the catalyst to change who I am being if I choose to accept them as a wake up call.  My prayer for us today is that we be open to noticing who we show up consistently and ask God if it is how God see’s us as capable of showing up.  Make it a great one!  Peace~Colleen
