The only way to change the world is to change the story.
The first time I read this sentence I read it, thought I understood it and read on. That was some time ago.
The next time I read this sentence some time had passed, a few life-changing events had occurred and, while I was the same person, I wasn’t the same person and I began to understand a bit more.
The most recent time I read this sentence I stopped reading and breathed in the spirit of this sentence, as if it was a sweet-scented and familiar perfume or food or light.
The world was still the world, the sentence was still the same sentence; and, yet, everything was changed.
What’s your story?
Once a change is made in a story the story changes. Seems obvious enough; however, think about that again. Let’s say, it’s *your* story. Let’s say, there are parts about your life/story that you don’t like. Making a choice to change is, often, difficult and (perhaps) terrifying. But, if that’s what’s needed, it’s necessary to change the story/life. Once that change is made, the whole world changes because you’ve changed, you’ve made a choice, your story has taken a turn. Thank you, Jessan, for your continued, shared reflections about life, living and, of course, writing. Please, stay safe. Carry on. ~ Rogue
