I am not the same person today as I was yesterday or even the person I will be tomorrow. I know new things and in the slightest I have changed. I have developed new thoughts, rations, theories and maybe even grown half a centimeter, but in a way I'm not the same as the day before or the day after. Though scary as the thought may be, there is something great about it; that is the beauty in the irony because the only thing constant is change. That change will be the only thing in our lives that is always there and inevitable.
Some people love change, some loathe it, some use it as a campaign slogan and others just accept it. Whatever it may be, it will always be there like a faithful dog, thus we should just learn to love it. In a way, it's a really good thing to learn to love. It's hard to accept because us as people have a hard time accepting the uncontrollable. Which is very evident considering we try to predict the weather. Weather is one of the most unpredictable and uncontrollable things and this speaks to the nature of people and how we have to have our way about everything. Though many people have done a lot through it and shifted and shaped the lives of many people. Such people were leaders of their time--headstrong people with a goal to see the world as it could be rather than what it was. Such people as Lincoln, Martin Luther, Rosa Parks and many others who could rally people in a common cause to change and change for the better.
Change can cause fear because as people, we are scared we will never find something as good as we have it now. In fact, I would even say it terrifies people. We cling on to the things in our life, trying to make sure that they always stay stagnant. The problem with conveying stagnant is that we never know the full potential of said things. Change is one of those things that requires the possession of hope. Change without hope causes fear, but change with hope can help to shape people and the world. Change isn't this thing to cower in fear over and it isn't something to settle for. Life requires it to grow and develop.
We must not spend our lives wanting to control the uncontrollable variables, but instead learning how to let them control us. Let ourselves accept that the only thing guaranteed in life is change and uncertainties. Knowing such things leaves a room full of open doors for ones life. Change brings opportunity and accepting so let other doors open. It only requires a person who has an open mind about life that knows the need for it.
