Embracing Change Wisconsin Spring

Spring in Wisconsin is all about embracing change. The same is true in life. We’ll talk about it in Embracing-Change-Wisconsin-Spring-Bob Davis Podcast 1162.

Travel Is Constant Change

Above the thing about travel is the constant change.

Issues in Life

Therefore when I stop down for the summer in Wisconsin I am confronted with these same issues in life.

New Wrinkles

As a matter of fact as I work harder and harder on my videos for the YouTube Channel that in itself is a big personal change.

For the link to the video version of this podcast click here.

Equally important is the nature of the season of spring.

Travel In The Southwest

After all most of my travel this winter has been in the Southwestern US.

Documenting Travel

And I have produced several videos and podcasts about my travels.

High Points

For example the Pacific Coast Highway in California, Death Valley and finally heading east on America’s Loneliest Highway Route 50.

Grateful To Watch Full Seasonal Change

Given many thousands of miles of nomadic travel this season staying in one spot gives me an opportunity to watch a full seasonal change.

Spring eventually becomes summer.

Depths Of Winter

Firstly up here in Northwestern Wisconsin when one is existing in the depths of winter…

It’s undeniably true that it feels like summer will never come.

To Glorious Summer

But it does!

And it’s truly glorious.

Brown To Blue Skies

Because I was able to see the change from barren brown and grey to verdant green and blue skies…

Analogy To Change

I was able to draw the analogy to changes in life as a result,

Resist Change

‘Secondly it is also true that we resist change.

Running To Seasons Change

Yet we run to the change of seasons.

Spring To Summer

Especially winter to spring and then on to summer.

Why Don’t We Embrace Change

Given these points I wonder why we don’t embrace change in our lives in the same manner?

Grateful

Even if we’re moving from Fall to Winter we might be grateful the heat of summer has passed.

Contrast

In contrast when it comes to personal change we wonder what we did to ‘deserve’ a certain result.

Fight Change

Or we fight to prevent the change from happening.

An Era Of Chaotic Change

Finally we’re living through an era significant because of its complexity and chaotic change.

Good

On the one hand change is good,

Bad

On the other hand it isn’t always easy to handle.

Aging

Even more we all age.

Growing Up

In addition those around us grow up and grow old.

Growing Old

In spite of our efforts people pass away.

Afterward I’ve always thought it strange that they have moved on but all their stuff is still here.

Life Goes On

Meanwhile lie goes on and we must cope.

Difficult Life

Also from time to time we are confronted with difficult circumstances which have the same finality.

Not Easy

At this instant it isn’t easy.

But we have to go on.

Better To Embrace Change

These days I am thinking it is better to embrace change than to fight it.

When-Will-Dark-Times-End?-Bob Davis Podcast 981

When Will Dark Times End

When Will Dark Times End? Most importantly there seems to be a lot of grief to go around these days. A friend asked me to do a podcast about the subject, Find out why in When-Will-Dark-Times-End?-Bob Davis Podcast 981.

Loss

Certainly I am dealing with a loss in my own life.

Don’t Want To Talk About It

Even more I don’t like talking about it.

Many In Grieving

However my friend said lots of other people are in the same position these days.

Sharing To Help

Moreover, he said, my experiences and thoughts might help.

Don’t Want It To Be About Me

I don’t want this to be about me. But many people are dealing with grief in these dark times.

When Does Darkness End?

Therefore When-Will-Dark-Times-End?-Bob Davis Podcast 981 wonders when the dark time will end.

Any Loss Can Cause Grief

Firstly death isn’t the only cause of grief and bereavement. For instance many of us can be deeply effected by the loss of an animal, a breakup or the loss of a job.

Subtle And Long Lasting Effects

And the effects of grief can be subtle and long lasting.

Above all I don’t have any clinical experience in these matters. In fact I tend to be rather stoic in these situations.

Travel Helps

On the other hand I have traveled across the country most of this year and last.

Darkness All Over America

Consequently I can speak with authority on a general sense of what can only be called darkness that seems like it’s been with us forever.

Tough Times

To sum up it’s not inaccurate to suggest many are going through tough times.

Secondly the cure for me is travel. Just hearing the tires on the highway makes me happy.

Finally as my friend suggested, talking about it seems to help.

Spring Is Coming

Meanwhile the days are getting longer and spring is coming. Maybe the dark time will end soon for everyone.

Full Moon-Walk-Change-Bob Davis Podcast 824

A second full moon in Libra in one month suggests change. For some it might mean enforced change. We’ll talk about it in Full Moon-Walk-Change-Bob Davis Podcast 824.

Pink Moon

These days every natural event seems to have to have a name. The end of April 2019’s full moon is ‘The Pink Moon‘.

Walk And Talk

With no wind to speak of and warmer temperatures it’s time for a Walk and Talk Podcast. The rules are clear. No prep. No Plan. Walk and Talk in Full Moon-Walk-Change-Bob Davis Podcast 824.

Theme For This Podcast

So it is especially relevant that change seems to be the theme of this podcast. Seems like things that were so hot not so long ago aren’t so hot anymore. Moreover since these walk and talk podcasts also serve to consolidate several highly prepped podcasts, we’ll talk about being ahead of the curve on the latest negative stories about social media.

Social Media and Mental Health

Certainly congressman AlexandrIa Ocasio-Cortez’s announcement she’s quitting Facebook because it’s a mental health hazard coincided with my podcast about oversharing on the embattled platform was pure dumb luck. Even more, an announcement by the CEO of Twitter suggesting changes in the platform because so many extremists litter its cesspool’s surface, really made me feel current.

Quantum Jumpers

Most noteworthy and unexpected for me is crediting one of You Tube’s most prolific ‘new age’ and ‘quantum shift’ proponents as a bell weather. When everyone including the fortune tellers are suggesting swimming in the river of so called news out of Washington, is ‘bad energy’ the end can’t be far away. Learn more in Full Moon-Walk-Change-Bob Davis Podcast 824.

A Change Is Coming

There’s no question political news and commentary saturates our airwaves and the Internet. We’re not learning more and consequently people are increasingly anxious. Clearly now everyone thinks something has to change.
