Change, how I use to dread
change of any kind. I use to hate moving house and I have moved quite a good few times, since
childhood I can count 13 times to be exact. Makes you actually realise why I
use to hate change (and moving). But yes, change of any sort I kinda cringed at
it. I would spiral into a spat of depression at the thought of having to give
up the comfort zone that I had created.
But look at me know! I have
come to embrace change and even encourage it. I have started to open my mind to
the amazing opportunities that are out there. To leave my comfort zone and go
and explore the unknown. I have moved to a province 4 years ago on my own and
far away from any safety net of family and I love the freedom of it. I loved
the absolute stunned reactions to those close around me when I did this. I have
started to study again and to expand my mind. I have allowed myself to become a
new version of my old self.
Change is good for you, it
allows you to explore that which is around you. To head into avenues that you
have always avoided. Comfort zones are good but it can be boring and you will
find yourself becoming stagnate.
Now I am not saying to go and
be a daredevil and do dangerous things but go and try out new things, move
house into a new area, step out of that comfort zone and live your life to the
max. Go out there and voice your opinions, be brave and cut your hair into a
daring new hairstyle, colour it outrageously. Go skydiving, go on a safari that
you have always wanted to go on, try a new sport, and go on that adventure that
you have always dreamed of. Write that novel that is sitting in your head,
become that poet you think that you are. Stop worrying what others will think
of you and reinvent yourself.
Oh I can go on and on but I
think you kinda get the message.
Go ahead and conquer that
deep fear inside you.
I am changing my way of
thinking on a daily basis and yes, I know it is hard but if I can do it at my
age, you sure can……
Change……how I relish it now!
I CAME, I SAW AND I SURELY
CONQUORED MOST OF MY FEARS AROUND CHANGE!
