I love this analogy, thank you for sharing it! It’s such a beautiful reminder that we are nature, and there’s so much to learn from it. To all the lobsters teaching us about becoming who we’re meant to be ✨
Bravo 👏 Laurie. I love all the stories you start with in your writing. It sparkles ✨ , I can connect to your point right away. I remember each story in your writing vividly and keep being mindful in my daily practice with some of your stories in my mind, so as you in my mind. You are an angel 😇.
This was a refreshing reminder. Most of the time, humans (myself) turn away from the discomfort. It's literally part of all life, yet most people resist thinking life should have time that are so hard. This is a very shortsighted way to live. Thnx for the reminder ✨️
I love synchronicity ! I have been writing in my journal recently, for a little while actually, about how I feel stuck. Weirdly it’s not a bad stuck. It’s an ok, now I basically have all that I want and need, so now what, kind of stuck. It feels like a fairly, major personal growth evolutionary phase, and I have no clue, right now, what to do with or about it. I keep advising myself, to stay open & curious, and be patient. But part of me thinks that a bit of a cop out and I really should be DOING something. But right now I’m not sure what. So perhaps I’m just in the throes of molting the current version of my life, and the next version will slowly make itself visible. I need to make like a lobster ! Fingers crossed that’s what’s happening here 🤣
In one sense , lobsters are lucky. Biology forces them to leave their shells and grow. Humans have to make the effort. The effort can be really difficult, butultimately rewarding, as you say.
I’m experiencing this change hard right now and over the last several months with a career pivot, while still operating a small business. Thank you for the posts, it’s helpful reinforcement.

Sometimes rest is needed before the next big adventure or time to challenge yourself.

Exactly.

This is such a great analogy for change mgmt. I’ve already shared it with 3 people!
Amazing! Thank you.
