Big Sister Advice #8

Starting this year, in addition to the Q & A, I’ll offer you some general words of wisdom, or stuff to think about, as you find helpful.

On Continuing to Grow

If we’re lucky, we will grow emotionally and spiritually our entire lives. We will shed old selves, former beliefs, stagnant relationships, and more as we continue to evolve. This is good for us. This is also very uncomfortable, and that’s okay.

Very often, growth does not feel good, even when you’re certain about it being right for you. We should learn to approach these seasons of growth with curiosity about why we’re so uncomfortable. What beliefs about ourselves are being challenged in this season?

We can also find the excitement in growth periods. What new things are on the horizon? Who will you meet in this new phase of life? How will you learn more about yourself and those close to you?

I hope you continue to grow, and that you continue to want to grow.
