When chatting with my brother the other day he related some of the changes going on in his life and said, “When one door closes another opens.” I started thinking about that phenomenon. While evidence of its pattern proliferates it is rarely a smooth transition and not one most embrace willingly.
Sometimes when we make the transit from the door that closes to the opening one we come unhinged.
“When change begins to occur one of two things is going to happen, you
are either going to end up in a better position or you are going backward, and
whatever occurs will be in strict accord with your predominant state of mind.”
Key to Yourself ~Venice Bloodworth
Sometimes we spend (a lot of) time in the hallway, in limbo, in between doors.
“Have patience with all things, but first of all with yourself.” ~St. Francis de Sales
“The two most powerful warriors are patience and time.” ~Leo Tolstoy
Moving forward, sometimes there is more than one door to choose from.
For every door that closes there is a new beginning.
Every broken moment brings a new awareness,
Every lesson learned a promise of fresh application.
