Here's an old post I've written ages ago, but I feel it's adequate for the current me. So yea, enjoy the change!
Change..Why is it that some changes in life are so difficult
to take? And why some has struggled to cope well with new changes in life?
I believe change is an inevitable part of life. It challenges
one to let go of the past, especially the comfortable, old ways of doing.
Change is just like a wall that one must strive to climb over it.
Alexander Graham Bell wrote, "When one door closes another
door opens; but if we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed
door that we do not see the ones which open for us."
Too often, have we sulked over past failures and thinking
what should have been and what could have been rather than looking forward. Why? Why are we scared of changes! Simple..We hold on to the
old because we still treasure it, may it be a relationship or the passing of
someone, who was dear to you. It was sentimental. It was something special.
True. I’ve tried hard and long enough to try to keep things
in my life unchanged, and pretend that things were still the way it used to be.
But, what gone is gone. And hey, there are still millions of doors just waiting
for you to open it.
Change is just like an illusion that one can manage just by
controlling the world around you. As the great Gandhi said, "You must
be the change you wish to see in the world. . Change is most effectively
managed from within ourselves!"
Changes are hard but what is there you can do about it? Learn to let go ! Let go of your security blankets and abandon
former perceptions. Only then you will move forward and feel better about it.
Change, like everything in life, can be beneficial when
harnessed.
Now, where is that door that Ghandi was talking
about..
