Growth is change - is change growth?

To be aware of my senses
To be aware of my emotions
To be aware of my grief
To be aware my tenderness
To be aware of my goodness
To be aware of my impulses
To be aware of my thoughts and desires
To be aware of the physical me
I grow.

Change is growth -
Open to new sensations
Open to new and deeper emotional reactions
Open to grievances
Open to change physically
Open to change intellectually
Open to be my own individual
Open to experiences - multiplied through a sensitive empathy with others

as when I am open
I can change
