Change Can Be A Good Thing

How change happened to me and what I did with it

Change Can Be A Good Thing
Hannah DeHart

God is always changing things and it is amazing. I have been having the most interesting year already so far. I have had people leave my life and me there's. I have been pondering that for so long, as to why I left and why they left, I was not really okay with the change going on in my life because I thought those were going to be people in my life forever but God had other plans. He has been changing my life for the better and I am slowly starting to realize that.

Have you ever sat down and just thought about how things are working in your life? Like why did this person leave, what are they doing now and what are you'd doing now? I think about how if I was still going down this dark path I was on I have no clue to where I would be in life at the moment. God gives us test throughout our life. Something happens and He wants to see how we will react to it and if that isn't the most truth I have ever heard. God gave me this big test and if I am being honest with you all I was not handling it well, but when it was over my life completely turned around for the better and it just showed how amazing and true He is to His word. 2 Chronicles 32:3..."God left him to test him and to know everything that was in his heart."

Now don't get me wrong, accepting change was NOT easy. There were many many MANY tears, questioning God himself. Yeah, I questioned what He was doing in my life and now that I think about it I am thinking Hannah was the heck is wrong with you. Anything out creator does for us, is for the better, whether it is changing how you do things, a life lesson, no matter the case I know He has a plan for me for life and when I came to realize that conclusion I am okay with whatever comes my way.

Things really do happen for a reason and when you start to become okay with that, life won't seem as crazy and the heartaches and tears won't come as often. Change is around us every single day and happens every single day.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
