Pondering progress

Sudden change can be traumatic but slow change, especially when we are striving for a goal can be difficult as well. I’ve been practicing yoga for over ten years. There are poses I will never be able to do, simply because my body doesn’t work like that, but it can be gratifying to realize that I can go a little deeper or do something I couldn’t before. There are also bad habits that I’m discovering that I need to work on but that doesn’t mean I’m not making progress.

The change I want to see in the world is like that as well. I want change now. I want people to see things my way. But…I take a deep breath and take one step at a time. Sometimes I find that I am the one that needs to retrace their steps and take a different path there is progress.

Good luck in your journeys. Where have you found it hard to see progress?
