Personal Growth

How can I make room for growth that I do not yet fully understand?

Personal growth can involve a changing perspective, a new ability, a clearer boundary or deeper appreciation of what already works. We may be growing before we recognise it. Reflection helps us understand that experience and consider how to live with what becomes clearer. It can reveal something to continue, change, repair or explore. Growth includes learning through joy and cooperation as well as difficulty. It need not be constant or visible to others, and it never determines whether we deserve dignity.

A question to sit with (optional): Looking back, what has changed in my understanding, and what would help me live with that understanding now?
