Some seasons come on fast and furious while others take their own sweet time. Where Mother Nature is concerned, there's really no telling. Sometimes things just refused to be rushed.

The same goes for our own hearts and minds. There's no way of knowing when we're ready to make changes, shed some skin, grow our wings or when we just need a little more time to hold on to what has been before. There's nothing wrong with that.

Today, see if you can find something that just isn't willing to let go. There's something to be said for savoring the past and letting go at our own pace. Slow and steady can be one way to honor ourselves. When the time is right, we'll let ourselves fall. And when we do, there'll be soft ground to land on.

Note: Sometimes the preparation of what's to come can be as rewarding as what we're looking forward to. Life is a process and these things can't be rushed. Today's challenge is a way to celebrate all parts of the journey and traveling at our own pace.
