Progress or Regress

Law of Progress -- Everything is either progressing or regressing. Nothing stands still.

"Nothing remains constant and unchanging. Everything must either advance to a higher phase or level, or regress back to a more primitive one."

This law pertains to the mental, physical, and spiritual aspects of each person. It can also include relationships. We are either growing or regressing backwards...nothing is in a holding pattern. As with each choice we make, we also have an equal reaction that results from our choices. Everything is in a constant state of change. Nothing stays the same...except for absolute truth.
It is almost as if we have an innate desire to evolve in every way. It is the soul's urging to become self acutalized. We move forward or backward...but never to remain the same in every moment. The same is true on a broader scale involving the human race. We are always changing, cycling, and evolving. To stay the same is to be dead, so to speak.
I find that whatever lesson I am learning is for my own evolution which in turn progresses or regresses humanity as a whole. I'd like to say i'm always in "drive", however, I do regress in personal lessons and relationships. Even the regression can teach a lesson. The tall and short of it is that we are all on a journey and sitting around is not an option.

So true.. we have to make each moment count, even when it is in a time of quiet contemplation. We can't allow our minds to become stagnant & complacent.
Being 'aware' of each precious moment is a work in progress.
