Different

Over the last few weeks, I’ve had a lot of change in my life. What I recently used to do, think and experience has changed. It’s different. Not better, not worse, just different.

It is hard not to compare today with yesterday. It is in our nature. It is part of our coping mechanism for dealing with different. We are quick to make an assessment as to whether today is better or worse than yesterday.

Most of the time, it is not about better or worse, it is just about different. Actually, it always is.

Everything we do, think and experience has an absolute value. And this value is irrespective of what came before it or will come after it. What you have today is different to what you had before and will be different to what you have after. Take it all in. Experience it for what it is. Enjoy its absolute value. Stop yourself from comparing it.

Different is good for us. It helps us grow, it helps us flourish, it helps us expand. Look out for different. Seek different. Enjoy different.
