Transform Your Life with Spray Foam
Nothing begins as what it will grow into.
Not babies, nor acorns, nor relationships – not even the egg or the bread you made into egg on toast this morning.
We all start at the beginning, not the end. And there’s a whole “middle” to our story that gets us from the day we were born to the last day of our lives.
An “in-between.”
And no matter how much we try to rush, to push through, to get to the next phase, the next thing, the next whatever…
When it comes down to it, it’s the “in-between” that matters.
The end of a story can’t happen without everything that comes before it.
Do you watch a movie or read a book or listen to your favorite story to reach the end? Of course not! If all we cared about was the end of a story, we’d never watch or read or listen to anything!
But we humans love stories.
And storytelling – passing on our experiences and things we imagine – is one of the strengths of our species.
We don’t sign up to experience a story for the ending alone. We long to know how the story unfolds!
We want to know how the hero saves the day, how the heroine gets out of that terrible fix she’s in, how that animal somehow communicates with a human…
We read stories for the connection we feel with the characters, the places they explore, and the experiences they go through.
So, why – if we are so interested in stories and the way they unfold – do we try to escape from our own?
Transformation Comes Through Change
Humans are born small and helpless. We need nourishment to grow, and information to take in, so our brains – the human superpower – can develop.
We all begin life as a child.
As such, we all know what it’s like to experience things for the first time!
Maybe that’s why we are more inclined to give children the space and grace they need to grow and learn.
We change into our adult forms slowly, after all – slower than many other life forms do.
Tadpoles become frogs in the course of a season…
Caterpillars emerge as butterflies in just a few weeks…
And most garden plants only survive to produce fruit for a short while.
Compared to most other beings in Nature, humans develop quite slowly.
But once we pass through adolescence and enter adulthood, we tend to think we’ve reached the pinnacle of our life experience…
When, really, we’ve only just begun the “middle bits” of our story!
Change Never Ends!
Upon reaching adulthood, we forget that the mental and emotional growth that we experienced as children doesn’t stop with physical maturity.
Life’s changes are constant – and they can be extreme, regardless of one’s age.
Even our fully matured bodies change daily – little by little.
That means we are all learning and changing today! Right now!
Every day brings winds of change – some are cool breezes and some are cyclones, but none of them are exactly the same.
When it comes down to it, none of us is ever all the way “grown up.”
Because life is change!
And that means every day is precious.
Every moment we experience leads to the next…
And when we pay attention, we can better see the areas in our lives that are going, changing, transforming.
With intention, we can move through our days with more grace, vigor, and gratitude.
Living With Intention is Transformational
Like our animal friends, humans have the amazing ability to transform ourselves in a matter of weeks.
Just take a look at a growing baby now and again in, say, 6 weeks, and you’ll see what we mean! The transformation a child undergoes in even a short amount of time is amazing!
Once a person reaches adulthood, physical changes appear to halt for a number of years – but that’s not the case! Outward physical changes do slow, but change is, nevertheless, still happening.
We all age, no matter who we are! Aging is part of being human….
But it doesn’t tell the whole story, either! Humans aren’t just their bodies, after all.
As such, not all transformations are physical…
And not all of them are involuntary (like aging), either!
There are many things we don’t have control over – like the shape of our ears or where we were born…
But we do have control over many other things that influence our lives.
What we choose to consume – be it food, media, etc. – influences how we feel in our bodies and minds.
What we choose to do with our time has an impact, too.
If we put good things in, we tend to get good things out – just like a beloved recipe.
Are you looking for a change in your life? You can make one!
Our lives are always changing, and if we are paying attention – and living with intention – we have a hand in what we become.
Just like a spray foamer decides when and where spray foam materials transform into the amazing insulation we all love!
Spray Foam’s Transformation
Spray foam material, like humans and countless other life forms on this fantastic planet, undergoes an impressive transformation to fulfill its designated purpose – be it insulating your home, barn, or toy trailer…
Increasing the floatation of your boat or dock…
Repairing your sagging foundation…
Preventing ice dams…
Protecting crawl spaces…
Or any number of other things!
When spray foam insulation is manufactured, it looks very different from what it does in its cured state.
Wondering how spray foam works? Here are the basics:
Spray foam insulation begins its journey as two viscous liquids kept in separate barrels – two halves of a whole. These two liquids are called “A-Side” and the “B-Side.”
A-Side and B-Side are kept separate until Xtreme Alaska Spray Foam (or another fantastic Alaskan spray foam contractor!) sprays the foam in your walls, because – much like a science experiment in grade school (remember those awesome volcanoes??) – a chemical reaction takes place when you mix them.
The two components of spray foam materials are drastically altered when they meet one another, transforming into the versatile product we think of when someone says “Spray Foam Insulation.”
Just like your life experiences and choices shape who you are, the transformation spray foam undergoes during installation is one of the many reasons spray foam is so effective – it is applied – and insulates – exactly where it needs to be for optimal performance!
Other insulating materials are end products before reaching your walls – and that can lead to gaps and leaks in your insulation.
Spray foam is different. And being different means you save money on your energy bills!
When spray foam insulation transforms into its intended state during installation, it becomes the product you need to help you and your family weather all of life’s changes for years to come – and live life to the fullest!
