Change is something that I have a bittersweet relationship with. It is often a case of serendipity as well as something capricious. Don't get me wrong, there is absolutely nothing wrong with changes and some are meant for the good of the public. As the legendary writer, Leo Tolstoy once proclaimed, "True life is lived when tiny changes occur."

However, some changes are more characterized as a life-changing route that tends to require some extra time to fully adapt to and eventually accept. Examples of some of these changes include moving to a new place which could end up being a foreign country or having to meet new people at your workplace as well as in your family.

Changes can be either good or bad. A pulchritudinous change in biology occurs when a caterpillar metamorphoses into a resplendent butterfly, thus defining change as an aesthetic weapon in nature. Some changes are considered auspicious in the sense that they bring forth a future full of radiance and merriment. Perhaps, the real meaning of life is to embrace life with a daredevil attitude whenever you are brought face-to-face to changes that you were totally oblivious to.

Despite not having a predilection for changes 100% of the time, I have learned to embrace them especially when I know I have the tenacity to conquer them. After all, since when has life been completely static? As humans, we are innately programmed as bombastic creatures who have no alternative choice but to keep on accelerating swiftly even when changes come our way.

Moreover, changes shouldn't be treated as a major hindrance in your life for any reason! The paradigm of life has been constructed in that manner and it is always a sign of positivity when these changes are accepted gracefully. There's no thrill in life if our lives are severely mundane with no headaches i.e. changes that help shape the person we are.

Experiencing a dynamic shift in roles as a person is one prime example of change that may seem inaccessible at first, but is certainly worth the ride. For instance, a woman is first a young girl who is a daughter, who then matures into a wife, mother, and ultimately a grandmother.

Likewise, a man is first a young boy who is a son, who then develops into a husband, father, and ultimately a grandfather. Reaching these redoubtable milestones in life is what signifies a change and thus serves as the impetus for life's natural changes that are meant to ultimately lift your spirits. As a matter of fact, there is nothing odious about changes if they can be handled in a mature manner as they cross your path during the cycle of life.
