'I'm at a different place in my life right now.'

Loose words, almost an alibi and monumental to explain if heart-felt. Yet, there come moments in one's journey when one is forced to change track, alter his routine, beliefs, preferences and often, his ideals to accomodate new avenues and experiences, lessons learnt and make fresh beginnings.
There is no harm. Growth and change are natural. Clinging on can often become a handicap. If one day we are prompted and tempted to differ from or even contradict entirely all that we stood by and preached, should we hold on for a matter of pride or dignity?
We should release ourselves to our destiny. We must kneel before forces that are stronger. We must heed the old wise man.
In life, there is a New Beginning.... and then some more.

I loved the last line,'In life, there is a New Beginning...and then some more '

Whenever any major change takes place in my life the weather changes drastically. I know it sounds crazy but it has always happened. I remember getting over something and waking up the next morning to be greeted by heavy rain. Man, that was the best feeling ever! Like the rain had washed away everything...(Unrelated to your post but felt like sharing it.)

The feeling you talk of is amazing.. I've had some of my own.. It comes from somewhere beyond..
