Spinning through Life

Meandering through life is quite like a circling top. Sometime it spins, humming musically along for a long and lovely time. Other times, the spinning top bumps into an obstacle and gets jolted into a new direction. Generally, a new course finds its own way and allows for more spinning.

Every once in awhile a top gets stuck, spinning in that very same spot, endlessly, almost enough to get dizzy and then nauseous. And other times, the top just topples over, needing to be restarted or fixed.

In life, when your top topples over, it is notably time for a change. It's important to remember that change is sometimes as good as a rest. We need change because some habits that we have comfortably nestled into may not be quite productive, or worse, may be harmful to our motion and momentum.

We must embrace change when it confronts us. Move forward. Fear not. Be brave. Go gently into the new spin. There is so much to see and do out there, in life. Your life. Spin happily.
