There Is No Fighting the Tide

Along with death and taxes, change is also something that is expected and required in life. It happens every day to every one. Some are small, like changing your mind on where to go for lunch. Some are life altering, like death. With the changes, you must adapt. I'll probably be the first to admitt, I'm not the greatest in the world at adapting to change or accepting it for that matter. A bitter taste on my tongue, change is something I do not like. I'm not unlike others in this matter. Find any cafeteria or break room. People will sit in the same place every time. Someone takes their place and all hell breaks loose. But despite my distaste for eminent change, I find myself submerged in it. Just when I think I can tread the waters of a change, a new wave breaks and I'm pulled under again to fight my way back to the surface. It's a never ending fight. It seems I can't catch a break. Not all change is bad, not in the least. There are probably as many positive changes in life as negative. It's all a part of living, of breathing. Changing. You can't evade it, can't fight it. The world is always turning, the days are never the same.
