Change

I have a small talisman with the word "change" stamped into it to remind me that change is the only constant. And these days I'm noticing that life is changing quickly. I can't tell if it's my being over 50 now, and so tuned into how my life is finite. But in my experience, life is speeding up. Forms come into structure, then shift, evolve, break down. Some days I lull myself into the illusion that it's the "same old, same old"--then BAM! I wake up to the hammer of change. Kali creates and destroys. And begins again.
