Change

“The only constant is change”.

Is this true? I think it is. What about you? So change lives with you, makes you stretch, reach, and see beyond your door. So, open the door and step through.

Octavia Butler once wrote, “All that you touch you change. All that you change changes you. The only lasting truth is change.” Do you really change where you go? Maybe so. After all, if you walk the same path all your life the green parts will give way to the dirt below. So even not changing brings change. To ride off into the sunset is impossible because the sun sets. The, sun, sets. Just before it disapears beyond the horizon and while you are jetting off into it, it leaves you for some time, then comes back up the next day, providing light. During the time it is gone, you have the ride the uncertainty of the moonlight, which is not bright enough. Does it mean when you ride off into the sunset you are persona non grata? Who knows. You still have to keep riding, even in the dark because the world will not stand still.

But Change is good so let us embrace it. Throw off all the misundertood and misunderstanding and just go forth. So as today melts into tomorrow, change greets us with hello.
