The concepts of acceptance and resistance to change are valuable ones. Sometimes when things don't seem to be changing quickly, we just need to look with more open eyes. Once while looking at a snow-covered forest floor one March, I noticed that underneath this still and seemingly unchanging snowy scene, the snow was melting. I could see green plants growing out of the warming earth pushing up toward the sun. It reminded me that in the still and fallow times, change and new growth is happening and have faith that some times we can't force change but trust that we've put things in place for it to happen, to grow.
