Icy winter’s beast,

Facing unstoppable change,

Embraces new life.

A last remnant of Winter, facing the warming of the Spring’s sun and change that cannot be stopped.  Some change we look forward to, like the coming of spring after a long winter or the birth of much wanted child.  And some change confuses and scares us, like the loss of a loved one, a need to start over, or the need to regain a part of ourselves.  Change will come, whether we want it to or not.  Will we survive and prosper or will we prove unable to adapt?  The very fact that change scares us so much, the unknown, the different, the unsure..is why it becomes so important to learn to deal with changes in our lives.  It is often difficult, and it is not always pleasant, but change is such an  opportunity for us to grow and learn, to adapt to a new set of circumstances.  Change might be an end, but it is important to remember that it is also a beginning.

    Change is a fact of life. Everything moves, and exists only in the moment, before changing into something else.

      Exactly! And this is why it is so important to learn to deal with change instead of fighting it. It is harder than it sounds though!

        I agree, to make provision for unknown situations brought about by change is a difficult skill to learn, but gets easier with practice.
