Change can tear you apart inside or it can open your eyes and bring you so much closer to where you want to be. Either way change is inevitable and what really matters is how you respond to it. I have spent most of my life fighting change and i've never stopped it once. I've delayed and procrastinated wherever i could but its only bought me time and made my denial more severe. The best advice anyone has ever given me is to be like water. I always thought that meant to relax and and be a witness to your own life as it happens. Thats not right. I'm realizing now she was telling me to be flexible, to meet change and work around it, and to never stop moving toward your destination just because your path has changed. Though its a cliche, when one door closes one more truly unlocks.
