To live is to be in an ongoing state of change. Nothing is ever the same. Nothing is static. Everything is moving. Everything is in flux.

We can hold on to the familiar for a little while, especially if it aligns with our life path. But at some point, we’ll have to let it go and embrace the new. Even if it’s rooted in joy and love.

See, if we cling too long to anything, we stagnate. We stop changing. We stop growing. We stop living.

We don’t need to rush through life or keep busy just for the sake of doing. But when it’s time to let go, we need to let go so that we can continually welcome life into our lives.
