Biologically, it takes 7 years for body cells renewal completely. So to say, every 7 years, we sort of take on a new body. But of course, if we were to look into this microscopically, we've never stop changing. This second is different from the next...
Zooming out for the bigger picture, if we were to view our life cycle; we do move into stages of life every 7 years. First 7 years, we learnt to stand on our both feet and talked. we started to explore the things around us, made our parents crazy by never-ending questions.
The next 7 years, we went through dramatic hormonal changes during puberty. In search for self-identity and social circles. At 14, was a my first turning point. I finally flung my exams due to my years of laziness. Made a sharp turn and woke up since.
At 21 year old, we turn "adult" officially. We wanted others to treat us in a mature way. We stepped into the working society and moving into career. I was at a cross-road and had my second turning point here, shifted from management to yoga teaching. I did not realise it, until i started looking back at my personal timeline. Interesting!
Moving into the third batch, i am in mid way to 28 year-old. We have this blue-print at the back of our head; a visualization of the life we want to move towards to. Our body changes, i am no longer the 21 year old "Adeline". Learning to drop the body and take on a new body.
How many batches of 7-year do we have in a lifetime? Well, its up to us.
Take a step back and review our life cycle in batches of 7-year. Though there's no strict rules that things should change every 7 years, its when we keep track whether we're "growing" or "aging". And every transition, is like a "re-birth"--- we're given another chance to grow, don't miss it!
