Life Transitions
Each time a door closes, the rest of the world opens up. All we need to do is stop pounding on the door that just closed, turn around- which puts the door behind us- and welcome the largeness of life that now lies open to our souls.
I came across this beautiful saying as I was reading Let Your Life Speak by Parker Palmer when I was studying Physical Therapy in graduate school. Reading that book, along with self-reflections, inspired me to listen to my calling, and so I changed my career path from physical therapy to psychotherapy. Never have regretted that decision even for a second.
