Maybe its just me, but I think I am one of those people that cannot really handle change that well. I mean, why fix something that isn't broken?
I know that there are both pros and cons to changes, but I can see that I, myself, maybe just too scared of it. I guess I am scared to take new chances, scared to really open my eyes, scared to stray away from the path Ive grown all too familiar with...
Maybe its because of the people I see around me, friends and family that have changed themselves. Some better, some for worse. I guess it is the 'worse' bit that terrifies me. Why would people want to change into something they are not? To change into a life so different to what they once were? They were perfectly fine before, but now... sometimes I cant even talk to them like what I did before. It seems as if the knitness between us has divided, torn in two and hanging by a thread. Awkwardness and uncomfortable air engulfs the conversations. From speaking from the top of my mind, to rethink my every actions and words - thats the difference.
But sometimes change can be good, with healthy changes leading to an expansion of horizons and knowledge, and the ability to experience new things.
I guess I am just scared. I am not a risk taker, I like where I am - comfortable. Comfortable due to the situation that I have slowly built up throughout time, and scared of any sudden change that may demolish my fortress of reality.

WHERE DID YOU FIND SUCH AN AWESOME PICTURE???
anyway...i understand you bro, i too ,am very scared of change - not that i let it get in the way of my actions too much of the time. i believe that i have changed in the last year or so, now noticeably in the form that i am much more willing to take risks and do new things, before i used to be so scared of doing anything new at all..im slowly learning to take a step out of my cocoon. afterall, even though our cocoon is where we belong and the place that we have spent our lives building, there is no forward movement if we stay inside. there is no real purpose to life if we just let things remain as they are. Conversely , we also cannot continuously live through risks and change of large proportions - this will affect us because we will become wracked with uncertainty becuase nothing is constant.
so, we must stride towards finding the balance between change and constancy. im with you!
agreed.
change means "Autobots! Roll out!"
