Change

Complicated subject.

How do we determine the need for change?  Humans are complex but for most  people become willing to change only when the discomfort of where they are at is so great it overcomes the fear of change.

All change is frightening.  Why?  Because we don't know what the change will look like; feel like or even what all the change demands to unfold.

The Irish have a wonderful saying that shows what I mean:  "Better then devil you know than one you don't."

Change is demanding.  Non-change is safe and besides we human adapt even to pain and our coping skills will covertly make pain more manageable.

But, life happens.  Change is not optional  because at different points we all must change.

Better to lessen your fear of change and embrace possibility; not the devil you know!
