Part of
what makes a new beginning difficult is that it’s unknown and a shift from the
normal. New things disrupt our lives and take getting used to. I’m pretty good
at adjusting to changes, even embracing them, but adaptation really does take
time.
I was
already leaning into this new direction, anyway, but it’s become more abrupt
than I would have liked. I wanted more easing into it. I wanted to take my time
to learn and wade in at my own pace.
But then we
don’t always get what we want.
