This week with the changes on Facebook (FB) and the ups and downs of it all; people hating it, people liking it, confusion on how to get from one page to another. Some saying I need help, some just working with it and yes, some who are walking away from it all. Then, there are some who are just embracing it and seeing where it goes…going along for the ride – the rollercoaster ride of FB.
This morning, during my sitting in with the dawn time, I thought how the changes of FB, has been a lot like the changes in Life and how some people…I deal with them, it, changes…it’s kind of the same.
Oh, the first day I clicked to FB and saw all the new stuff come up I thought; “What the Fuck?!! ; Why?!!; What is this Shit?!!” And many more questions along these lines. But in those moments, these thoughts came to mind also; “Stop!; Look at It; quiet; listen; it’s just changes…what experience do you want to have hear? Remember you are bigger, greater then any experience you can have. Then I just took a moment and a breath then became presence with FB book and the changes and started looking around at it. Some things were better, some things didn’t make any sense to me and some things I couldn’t and wouldn’t use, atleast right now…just like Life. Taking FB and Life one step at a time and seeing where it leads me. What can these changes do for me? What would these changes do to me?
I like FB, I’ve founded friends I haven’t been intouch with for years. I’ve caught up with their lives, enjoyed sharing things with them and realizing all the Love I have and have had for years. It’s all change…things & people change…FB change…Life change, we have to be open to changes because it helps us grow, it shows us new things, it answers questions, that at times we think there is no answers too. Yes, there are changes on FB, but how do we want these changes to effect us, like the changes in our Life. It will be uncomfortable for awhile, then we get familiar with them and we start to work with them and then they are wonderful, great, really good…until the next change…Life.
Ask yourself: My reaction to the changes on FB, are they the same reactions to the changes in my Life? And what happens after my reactions? Do I take action?
How will you ever know if you don’t change? If it doesn’t work, you can always make another choice. Don’t let the changes scare you or stop you there are always other choices you can make but those choices will also bring change…its call living Life…or using Facebook…?
“To change is to grow,
To grow is to change
And growing and changing…
Is living Life…”
