Change

People struggle to change and grow. As in my case, the struggle is due to resistance, not the change itself.  At times, it is hard to see but each small change is in the direction of increased love, connection and inclusiveness.  The changes do not come easily for myself or those I come in contact with.  As I have learned and observed, people change when the pain of staying the same is greater than the pain/fear of changing.  I find myself wishing that change had come more easily in my life, as it does now.  My life is now full of love, connection and inclusiveness, but it was difficult getting to this point.  I resisted.
