When roles are shifting

When roles are shifting out of the ordinary

When life throws you a curve ball
It is up to you to catch it and work with it.
It may be out of your comfort zone
And not something that might be easy to do.
Yet it offers you an opportunity
To step out of your normal routine.
Isn't it all about balance?
How to get rebalanced again when it happens.
Every thought and emotion that come up.
Because of the changes they need to be looked at
In a different way and also different perspective.
You are no longer the same as you were before
Due to the challenge that lies within each new
Experience as well the way we relate to it.
This is a constant factor in our life,
Weather we realise it or not, it is an ongoing process.
Life is all about change and growth and we can
Adept or fight them, allow to come up what is there
Or ignore what it wants to let you know.
There are situations that have a small impact
Yet others will be a real challenge for it is a shift
Most of the times it depends on the way we are
Able to adept or adjust to them how easy the change or
Shift will be.
Yet talking about out of the ordinary roles, there are a
Few that come to mind, like become a parent, or wife,
Or maybe the other way around, first the partner and lover
Then the father or motherhood, which can change into
The grandparent thing as well.
To be able to stay in touch with the inner core of ourselves
To me that is the biggest challenge when life throws me
A curve ball directing me in a totally different direction.
Not always one I choose, sometimes one I really don't want
Yet every time change comes a shift in perspective is needed.
It takes courage and strength at times to go through the
Normal routines that no longer feel like normal,
Yet become out of the ordinary.
When the role of caretaker shifts into taking care of one self
And the experience is not being a smooth ride.
We all go through these different phases in our lives.
In every lifetime we experience the loss of someone we love,
The different stages in our lives, either personal or professional.
They all require a new way of finding a balance again within.
The more we can release of the emotions connected to the
Experiences that are causing hurt, pain, sorrow or fear,
The more we are able to embrace a different role
Life demands from us to accept,
To create a new balance
Within the core of our heart and awareness,
The better we are able to step into our new role
The best way we can and know.
Love will always be of assistance and all we need
Is to allow and trust the healing power that lies within.
By doing so we will create any role, even out of the
ordinary, for we can stand on firm ground and
have confidence by letting Love show us the way.
Self-love is a major component that enables us
To step in to any role that is been created to let go
Of any that is holding us back to be the best we can be.
For we are Creator and Creation all wrapped up in one.
