"Getting through transition is
not easy, but unlike the change-wall, transition represents a path to follow.
To change your attention away from the change-barrier and toward the
transition-path, you need to start where the transition itself starts: with
letting go of the inner connections, you had to the way things were. The
question that always helps you to shift your focus from the change to the
transition is, 'What is it time for me to let go of?'"
—William Bridges
Only two months left until we move the front porch and the family. Looking at all that is to be gained, while
allowing our hearts to feel all that will be lost. It is time to let go of what was and prepare
to step into what is. Even though our
address will be changing our attitude, will not. We still have a heart for authentic community
and we believe that building it starts with one conversation at a time. We believe that listening well, asking good questions
and pausing on purpose throughout the conversation allows for healthy
connections. We still believe that those
connections we make are either for a reason a season or a lifetime.
As we let go of this time and place, we will hold tight to the memories
we have made and the relationships we have established. We will shift our focus from one front porch
to another, leaving space for the new season we are about to enter.
