Have you ever felt like life comes at you all at once at times?

It seems like there are times when life moves in a holding pattern, almost like on auto-pilot. Then, all of the sudden, things change rapidly.

This makes me think of one of my favorite sayings:

“There are decades when nothing happens, and days where decades happen”.

This refers to the idea that sometimes the news all seemingly breaks at the same time. In this case, it refers to the news of the world as a whole, but I think that we can apply it to our personal lives as well.

Sure, there are many times when we don’t necessarily have a lot going on, but then there are days or weeks when it seems like everything is up in the air.

Right now, I am in one of those periods of a LOT of change.
