From the moment we're born, change is happening all around us. Someone just lost a loved one, someone just got into the college of their dreams, someone just got married. Yes, these are some of the more positive changes life decides to throw at us and most of the time we embrace them. It's when there's negative changes do we suddenly hate the idea of change and get mad at the universe. When our parents divorce, when your boyfriend breaks up with you, when your best friend betrays you. These are the changes that make us question why it even has to exist. What's the point in a change if it breaks your heart? When we experience this kind of change, we begin to look through a fog. If it hurts me then I don't see the point in why it had to happen, right? Wrong. Some of the best things in life come through the hardest experiences. That friend that betrayed you? Well she served her purpose by teaching you not to let your guard down. That guy that broke your heart? He taught you the things that truly matter to you in a relationship. Your parents divorcing? You learn to become so independent that one day you own your own corporation. We need to realize there's a reason for change, especially the bad even though we tend to list it off as the devil in disguise. If things were continuously wedding bells and acceptance letters no one would learn about themselves and their true purpose in life. It's from the bottom up where people are made.

Change is the best thing to happen to us, good or bad. I'm not saying to jump for joy when you lose a job, you're allowed to be sad about some changes. At some point, though, you have to get out of the fog and realize the true purpose for this change. Just because you lost something or someone doesn't mean nothing good can come of it. I dare you to embrace ALL changes from now on and see how you grow as a person.
