I know we as a people like to think and feel we are in control and in charge of our daily lives. And to some extent, that is very true. However, change can happen in our lives that we have no say in the matter. In one moment, one call, one text, one second, our life can utterly change as we are left to pick up the pieces and forge a new life the best way we know how. It’s hard to think that maybe some of these things can be ultimately for the better in the long run. Losing a job, changing relationships, many different changes that can hurt us deeply might surprise us to turn out better. Especially when there is betrayal or hurt involved. Losing a loved one forever is also painful. And I know it can feel as if things will never be alright again, but time somehow throws change at us yet again, and we realize the sun came out the next day.
When change happens, it can be scary and tormenting and honestly make you feel so insignificant and worthless; you wonder why you even rolled out of bed. For the last week, I have fallen victim to the wrath of change that has shaken me to the core, and I was left wondering, how do I go on? What do I do now? I didn’t want things to change, I was happy the way they were, but life is in control. All I can do now is control how I respond to it. If life is 10% what happens to you, and 90% what you make of it, then I guess we have to start thinking about making it a life to be proud of. But that means something different for everyone.
We all have different dreams and goals and lives to lead. However, I heard an interesting sentence the other day in a show that got me thinking. It said, “Some people live more in 20 years than others do in 80. It’s not the time that matters it’s the person.” I found that striking because it’s very accurate. This change affects how I will now spend more of my time. Will it be in front of a computer screen or go out in the world more? Will I have time for friends or on hobbies I always wanted to spend more time on or read a book from my long list of books I have wanted to read? I have no idea. But one thing I have learned in life is we survive is by learning to adapt. With this new year just beginning and knowing so many things can happen in the days ahead, I am excited to see what is to come. I hope you are too. What do you say we make this year the best year we can? At least in that, we are in it together.

You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this matter to be really something which I think I would never understand. It seems too complex and very broad for me. I am looking forward for your next post, I will try to get the hang of it!
