Change, it's the first step into the unknown where everything you have been used to is turned upside down. It's probably one of the scariest things that a person can experience, even going from something you didn't like to something you hope will be better, the human condition still causes us to shudder in terror of the unknown.
As mentioned before, my family and I are moving to a new town with the hopes of starting over and getting ourselves back on our feet. We have now put the plan in motion and have a date set for our move. However now that it's become a reality the nerves are coming into play. Even though we feel that this move will be the best thing for us, the idea of change is terrifying.
With things starting to move forward, and change imminent my wife started to express some of her worries. Being nervous myself I tried to help calm her down as best as I can, but until we get there the nerves will remain, we just need to push through it and do our thing.
This situation has helped me open my eyes to the fact that change is in our nature, and no matter how much we resist, it will inevitably happen. We were brought into this world in order to work on ourselves to break our negative traits and change them for the better, however hard it may be. Our base instincts will fight tooth and nail against being changed, but at the end of the day when we succeed in bettering ourselves there is no greater accomplishment to be had. So, yes change is scary, it's hard, but you just have to embrace it and know that it will always be for your own good.
