Changes

Changes are no fun. Why do people find that changes are hard and don’t like it? Are we all set in our ways and once we know how to do something we do not want to change them because we are comfortable and we don’t like to be uncomfortable and when we change things, we need time to adjust to it? Why are we so afraid of changes? Why do we feel that change is bad? Not all changes are bad and therefore no need to worry.

Marriage is a big change in life. Especially when you are a bit older and have been living a single life. Not to say there is no change if you get married very young. But it gets harder when you are older and have gotten a regiment and used to doing things your way. But why not open ourselves up to different ideas and approaches on doing things. Again, why are we so afraid to open up to changes? In marriage you are taking two people who grew up differently and making them live together and come up with a plan on how they want to run their household. Now that is a big change, but it is done! As so many are married and doing it. It is scary to think that what you do now, will have to change once you are married because you have another person to consider. The world is not revolving around you. Go figure. It might take us some time to realize that, but it is true.

Another change that is drastic is kids. Before you adjusted your life to your spouse and that took time to get used to. And then when kids come around, they show you who is the boss around the house. They make you change your sleep cycle and your daily cycle on what you are so used to doing. Whether it is going to work every day or sleeping late, or being lazy, or being overly productive. Once kids come around, you will need to change your lifestyle once again to accommodate the new people who you need to care for.

Moving and going on with life is a change. If you move from city to city, you are changing your neighbors, and your hometown, and your location. You just got used to the people, you got to know them real well and then you move. Go figure. Such is life. It happens to the best of all.
