It is characteristic of the human nature,
Of the human environment,
Of the human evolution.
Change, that is.
We can.
We shall.
We do.
We will.
On occasion, it thankfully causes
Us to be tolerable,
Even tolerant.
It is an unending circumstance,
Like the ever surging
Of the oceans.
And the constant sailing
Of the winds.
It is the very condition of
The earth that we are,
Waters and winds
Swirling around us,
Unfailingly
Moving us
Forward,
Whether we ever notice
Or not.
How then are we to benefit from
This humbling condition?
Notice
More often.

But this poem is also about individual change. Change is inevitable. Some people enjoy change and look for it to make things better. Some people abhor change and look for it to make things worse. Regardless of which camp you are in, being a part of the change will give you strength, one way or another. skp
