My body doesn't feel the same, nor does my mind.

It is as if I found and activated a switch that appeared.

It appeared all of a sudden and I knew to switch gears.

My movement was almost automatic and I couldn't believe.

Perhaps, my soul knew of this all along. I didn't think about it.

It happened so quickly before I could realize the difference.

The past version of myself is still reachable, but steady as she goes.

She is fading away, waving goodbye to me. She thanks me and smiles.

I smile back at her, I wish she could come along for the ride.

She nods and understands, but she pushes me forward toward the Light.

Time for new perspectives, new beginnings and a huge transformation.

Are you ready? She asks me. Yes, I respond in a shaky voice. Will I be okay?

The past me smiles and pushes me forward once more. She continues to fade.

She feels like a distant memory, but a familiar friend. In I go, it is time.
