In Process
/"Something in the process of becoming both is and is not."
This is a truth that I've kept close to my heart for decades. I think it came from the book Sophie's World but Im' not sure at this point.
It is a line I keep coming back to, especially amidst great inner and/or outer transformation.
When you are becoming something, you are simultaneously what you have been, but also are not anymore. You are already the thing you are becoming, but not quite yet.
All things can be true at the same time.
Be easy on yourself where ever you are at in your process. Know that at any given time you are and are not what you have been and are becoming.
When we can live in this place of tension, its less painful. It's a little sweet. Let yourself feel that sweetness.
