Noticing each moment as thoughts and feelings change, noticing how transient our experiences are. One moment we’re upset, shortly after that we’re fine, and the cycle continues. As we learn to embrace change moment-by-moment, it helps us embrace changes and new chapters in our lives that take us out of our comfort zone. Inspired by New Chapter, a poetry written by Denis Martindale (extract).
One chapter ends, another starts –
Just like another game of darts.
New thoughts take hold, new people speak,
Past characters play hide-n-seek.
New meals are made, new shows are seen…
Forget about life’s in-between…
Fade out the memories, let them go…
Move on to greet some pastures new –
The sky above is just as blue…
Transcend the traumas life inflicts
And soothe the wounds with gentle licks…
Patch up the heart that drips life’s blood,
Refuse to wallow in the mud,
Cherish the chapter that’s just begun
And close the book on the previous one…
