Birthdays

On this, my birthday, I am ever aware of the passage of time. I notice how much has changed in the last year, and I ponder how much might change in the next one. I cherish each gray hair left on my head, representing experience and resilience. I honor that nothing can stay the same. -Michael Tino (CLF)

What have been the biggest changes in the last year for you?

Embracing Change

“A lot of people resist transition and therefore never allow themselves to enjoy who they are. Embrace the change, no matter what it is; once you do, you can learn about the new world you’re in and take advantage of it.” – Nikki Giovanni

How have you learned to embrace change?

Cycle of Becoming

Ouroboros, the ancient symbol of a snake devouring its own tail, is a powerful representation of the interconnectedness of all nature as well  the lifecycle stages of birth, growth, death, and re-birth. Our earlier selves continually feed our later selves as we mature, creating a continual cycle of death and re-birth of self. -Lori Stone (CLF)

How have you experienced the cycle of becoming in your life?
