Think like a baby
Many folks set out to change the world without a thought of changing themselves. One thing we must deal with in life is change, it is inevitable. As humans we do not like change. We try hard to maintain the status quo even when it's horrible. There seems to be some kind of comfort in maintaining the status quo no matter how difficult it is. We refuse to give up a wrong plan even when we are in error because we always think we are right. To show we will not change we defend our faults and errors which only proves that a hard-headed person does not hold opinions, they hold him or her. Mental growth is dependent upon new ways of thinking, with success coming to those who are willing to modify, adapt or improve on ideals of the past. Babies have very little if any past insuring that they are always in a state of change. Maybe we should all think like babies because they seem to love and accept change right from the start, probably because the only words they hear for a long time are "its time to CHANGE your diaper". As adults we need to stop looking for sand to bury our head in and be willing to change and like it. For without change there is no help for today and no hope for tomorrow.

Change is like the tide, it comes and goes and we can not do anything about it! ybb
ReplyDeleteAs my husband has often said, "you can't change people." But as I regularly add, "you can a person if you're willing to change yourself first." Change is tough, but when you know it is for the better, it makes it much less painless.

You know I seem to change so much due to my addiction, But what I realize is change is part of life. You have to pick yourself up and move on.
