I knew this next season would be hard, but I didn’t know just how hard it would be. I feel like there has been so much change in my life lately that I hardly recognize it.
I went from always being home to never being home. In the month of November, I was only home for 14 days. And while I miss the stability of my old days, I am excited about all the change that is coming. I know I need to find my footing and begin each day knowing it will be new, and new can be magical.
“Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don’t resist them; that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like.”
~Lao Tzu
“Stepping onto a brand-new path is difficult, but not more difficult than remaining in a situation, which is not nurturing to the whole woman.”
~ Maya Angelou
I watched this sunset over Mono Lake a few weeks ago. I was reminded that there is beauty in the end of things. And in that beauty, we are given hope and expectation of a new day.
Are you in a new season? How do you handle changes in the flow of life?

Thank you so much. I can’t believe how amazing the new iPhone is.
Lovely images and words, Staci. I love the metaphor of a sunset. It’s amazing how much the colors change during such a short event.
