polar vortex winter storm

The "polar vortex" weather event that brought record low temperatures to parts of North America affected us all the way down here in the Western Caribbean. Here are photos of the damage the storm caused in the Buccaneer Landing area. While the damage to this area is pretty severe, we were fortunate that this northwest-facing section of the property was practically the only area affected.

life is change, nothing ever stands still

When things change in our life, often we have resistance to the change. But if you understand the structure of the Universe, life, and creation, then you will understand that life is change, and nothing ever stands still. Everything is energy, and energy is in continual motion and change. If energy stood still you would be gone, and there would be no life.

Change is always happening for the good of you and for everyone. It is the evolution of life.
