CHANGE
That scary word.
We love seeing change when we are not the one to change.
We fear change because it’s costly and we humans really are not fond of uncertainty.
Why?
Because we have a lot of attachment to the things we already have and we dont want to lose them.
so is it a matter of attachment to possessions? what about the whole heap of things we don’t possess?
That’s what fear does to ya, it makes you blind.
Do we have a choice?
yes and no...
not really
“Anxiety about the future never profits; we feel no evil until it comes, and when we feel it, no counsel helps; wisdom is either too early or too late”
- Arthur Somers Roche -
If its any comfort..
my hero C.S Lewis once said
To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything, and your heart will certainly be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give your heart to no one, not even to an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements; lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket- safe, dark, motionless, airless--it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable.
Love, makes you vulnerable.
It is like fear is attached to the whole love deal, like two sided coins
But not to love is impossible
So love something that doesn't fade
Then, change is just fun and game after all.
