Prompt: A new day. More changes. Do you feel every new day offers a chance for better changes in life? ---- To me, every new day offers another day of life. Whether it is for the better or not, it remains to be seen. Having said that, I am more than happy to be alive and breathing every morning when I wake up. Being alive is a good thing when I consider the alternative. Then, life is such that change is inevitable. It is like the weather. It never ever stays the same. You can be sure it will change one way or another if you wait long enough. It is a roller coaster ride. Those with a good balance and nerves can take a wild roller-coaster ride. Most others get sick. Surely, too strong a change, especially when it is heavy and sudden, overwhelms us. Those who study human emotions claim that a sudden big change, even if for the better--for example a windfall--, shocks and excites the people. Such excitement can lead to panic, and when there is panic, out goes the clear thinking and wise action. This means change can be fun but it is also difficult, and by the extension of that thought, so is life. |
