Let\u2019s have a conversation. Let\u2019s have it be a conversation during which we will conduct an extraordinary investigation into how life works at the mental and spiritual level, out of which will emerge a surprising revelation about ways in which we can change our experience of change itself\u2014which means, of course, our experience of life.<\/em><\/p>\n

All of life is nothing more than a process, and we call that process \u201cchange.\u201d \u00a0The conversation we are about to have is designed to offer you a pathway to help and to peace if you are struggling right now with changes<\/em> in your life.<\/p>\n

Are you going through massive changes right now? Or maybe just little ones? The truth is, there\u2019s no such thing as a \u201clittle change,\u201d in the sense of it being a change that doesn\u2019t matter. All change in one\u2019s life matters, because change is creation, and creation matters.<\/p>\n

So in this space over the weeks ahead, we are going to look at this experience of change — and at how it changes us. Is the way that Change changes us something that is within our control? Or are we consigned, after all is said and done, to do as Shakespeare put it: \u201cSuffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune\u201d?<\/p>\n

There could be no better time that right now to begin this discussion, as we make the change from 2012 to 2013 — and the bigger change from the Last Great Epoch to the Next Great Epoch, and a new 5,000+ year cycle as indicated by the Mayan calendar.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ll get this exploration underway with this important observation: The changes in your life are not going to stop.<\/em><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re thinking about riding things out for a while, waiting for things to settle down a bit, you may be in for a surprise. \u00a0There\u2019s going to be no \u201csettling down.\u201d Things are going to be in a constant state of upheaval on this planet and in your own life for a good while now.\u00a0 Actually\u2026 yes, well, I might as well tell you\u2026.actually, forever<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Change is what is\u2014<\/em>and there is no way to change that.<\/p>\n

What can<\/em> be changed is the way you deal with change, and the way you\u2019re changed<\/em> by change.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s what the conversation in this corner is going to be all about.<\/p>\n

We are going to be talking here about how to deal with major change, not just minor change.\u00a0 I mean change that emerges from collapse, calamity, and catastrophe\u2014or at least what we label as these.<\/p>\n

So if your life is collapsing right now, if you\u2019re in the midst of a calamity, if a catastrophe has occurred, what you\u2019re going to find here could save your life.\u00a0 I mean, emotionally.\u00a0 But heck, you know what?\u00a0 Maybe even physically.<\/p>\n

Here you will be given Nine Changes That Could Change Everything.\u00a0 And that is where we will go in our next installment here. I hope you will plan to join us — and tell everyone you know about the exploration getting underway here. We’re going to fly into 2013 with some of the most important reading you could do.<\/p>\n
