Patterns can be very effective tools in our lives.
However, if we neglect to adapt these patterns over time, they can become unproductive and downright destructive. Change is very important to Life. If you ever noticed the growth of a flower, you'll see that it's never the same at any one time. It goes from seed to sprout to bloom to decay and dust. Even something as simple as forgetting that you have these patterns can allow months, even years to slip by without much growth.
