What If Your Identity Was a River? Embracing Constant Change
Have you ever felt a subtle pressure to define yourself, to neatly summarise who you are in a few concise labels? Perhaps it’s your job title, your family role, or even the beliefs you hold dear. But what if the most authentic version of you is not a fixed point, but a continuous journey, a river constantly carving a new path?
Think about it: the person you were five years ago is not exactly who you are today. Experiences have shaped you, perspectives have shifted, and perhaps even your core beliefs have subtly evolved. This isn’t a sign of inconsistency; it’s the very nature of being human – a constant state of becoming. Just like a river never holds the same water twice, neither do we remain static. Embracing this fluidity, this inherent capacity for change, can unlock a profound sense of freedom and self-acceptance.
