Growth is painful because it involves death. Death of a part of the living organism; of a comfort zone; of a surrounding; of a habit.
I always wondered how mothers feel with the sudden growth spurt of their babies. What happened in the transition?? How did they switch from sitting up to crawling. When do they know it’s time to try and stand.. how do they know when to let go of the crawl for the walk.
It’s innate i think… the seasons and cycle of growth. Every leaf knows when to fall🍂
