For you, I exclaim a thank you! You show me change is possible, and in so many ways change is necessary! You show me change while setting an example of consistency…how is that even possible? Change can take away from us, and take us away. It can give us so much, and give us away. I hate change, but am bored with consistency. You provide an example of balance. You are the great example of change, yet there is something about you that is everlasting. You roll on by…day after day, month after month, year after year, lifetime after lifetime. Like the changing tides, you are consistent, and your consistency is needed for all of existence on earth. Like the tides you are…are you them? In some ways you are…your change gives us all so much. You cue us to stop and reflect, to slow down and enjoy, to hurry up and get our best work done, to wait and listen. You teach me patience, and show me control isn’t everything. There is a lot of my environment I am able to have control over, but you often remind me that letting go of all the control is necessary and inevitable. You help us, you hinder us, but your consistency is counted on!
