People come and people go. It is a nature of human existence. You cannot somehow rearrange that otherwise. Indeed, life is a place full of varied experiences that could range from total isolation to feeling truly rooted in community. But people change! And it doesn't matter who you are or what you aspire to be. At least, at some point in your life, you have changed from who you were before. And there is always a possibility that you could change into someone else.
Changing is one of the common things everyone stresses the most in their daily lives. No matter how hard or how easy your life is, you have to deal with the word "change" as you go about your day. And no matter how you secure you are in your future plans, there is always a chance that things could change. But if we find our new image unsatisfying, why do we attempt to abandon who we once were? Can we just make our lives come back to where it all began? Why did all of our friends need to change when we all graduated from high school? And why do we feel pressured to change when we all get something new and begin to act different? It's a fact, everything happens because we thought being that person would provide us with happiness, or at least a sense of security. But we forget to think of the effects of our habits when we change as our parents, siblings and friends look on in confusion.
Can we all pause for a moment in our lives and just stop changing? Can we all just act how we all used to be, not pretend to be someone else? It doesn't matter what you've been through, for there are always people who still support you and keep pushing you in love. Think of those, and don't turn away.
The effects of change do not stop at our individuality but can impact those around us, especially our friends. In our selfishness, we must think of the time when they were sad, and how we went to them, talked with them and encouraged them. Do not let the gap between your community and yourself get so far apart that it then leads you to change.
