“Thoroughly unprepared we take the step into the afternoon of life, or still we take this step with the false preposition that our truths and our ideals will serve us as hitherto. But we cannot live the afternoon of life according to the program of life’s morning. For what was great in the morning will be little at the evening and in the morning what was true at evening will become a lie.”
“The Structure and Dynamics of the Psyche” C.G. Jung
“It’s is like this: when I was a child I spoke and thought and reasoned as a child does. But when I became a woman my thoughts grew far beyond those of my childhood, and now I have put away childish things. In the same way we can see and understand only a little about God now, as if we were peering at His reflection on a poor mirror; but someday we are going to see Him in His completeness face to face…There are three things that remain – faith, hope and love – and the greatest of these is love.”
1 Corinthians 13: 11 -13

If we are open to the process of growth in our lives, we must oftentimes grieve what was in order to become open to what will be.

“But we cannot live the afternoon of life according to the program of life’s morning.” It is true! In every moment we learn something new, we are older, wiser, we are not the same as we were. Thank you, Lori! Blessings and much love, Manuela.

Yes, Manuela, holding onto lessons already learned do not allow for us to have our arms open to what can be, blessings to you!
