Dramatic change, soft change, hidden change, surprising change.
Either you initiated it or it came out of the blue… change is always at first, sort of strange.
We live in illusion of stability,
People, culture, religion,family and ourselves support this false reality.
Maybe because it is pragmatically more convenient,
or our mind is too lenient,
or we are too conditioned and obedient…
Yet at some point, the outcome of change will strike us
Earth beneath our feet will shake, thus.
The rules of the game will change forever,
Like streams of water bouncing in a river.
It will take sometimes to realize,
That in many occasion for the sake of stability, we compromise.
It’s legitimate from emotional needs’ point of view,
A long as you are aware and don’t deceive the true YOU.
It’s also good to plan in advance back-up plans,
Because change, in whatever resolution, is part of life, hey human...
Flexibility, detachment and sense of humor are always good.
Even if at some point you will find yourself in the woods.
Remember your home is your being -BodyMindSpirit
It’s based on your unique singularity, yet partly sadly or not, you inherit.

life is the school of awarness and humbless... change always stikes us... because we never perceive it all.. zoom out zoom in look here... something happens there...
I agree AVI "Change & decay in all around I see ~ Entropy is increasing ~ Planet earth is getting more chaotic and the rate of change increases day by day ! As an individual I am very very adaptable and I know I will survive baring accidents etc ~ so I still walk under ladders ! For me it is not the change that worries me (because it is inevitable) but my capacity to adapt and restore sanity ! Thanks again for freely sharing your wisdom & advice ~ Love & Hugs ~ You faithful Apprentice ~ BRIAN
dear funny Brian, who said change is bad? its not always bad... it just, suprises us non stop because our bio-psycho likes stability... and living forever... we get crazy from the unknown - things like death or infinity... so we invent stability... yet we are in constant change....
Thanks for you comment AVI ~ on balance change is neutral ~ but it is also inevitable because we live on a dynamic planet and also Mankind is never satisfied with the status quo and always seeks change as a means of progress. We live in a cyber age and in the UK many people who are over 75 are not computer literate in an age when everything happens ON LINE ! They CANNOT adapt to the change and so can become reclusive or considered senile ! The same is true when the system goes DOWN ! A few weeks ago our HEALTH SYSTEM (NHS) ground to a halt because of computer failure and this weekend it is BRITISH AIRLINES. I get asked by a lot of people 80+ (Who live alone) to help them to access computer based information etc which We just take for granted. If change is too quick or (unwitingly) exclusive then they are unable to adapt. This aspect is covered in SCIFI films where people are projected 100's of years into the future ! It is the capacity to adapt that worries me ! Love & Hugs ~ BRIAN
yes Brain you are right... but it happens to all of us , we just dont pay attention, because the price/performance of tiny changes may paralize all of us... so we pretend - things are stable, but they are not... so after a while... the accumulated change is so drastic ... that we are forced to look its way...
hugs and love Brian...
The best laid plans....nicely done.
hey Augustus hope u r well 🙂
