How do you feel about change in your life?

Do you welcome it as a fresh breeze blowing through your routine? Or do you dread the need for adjustment it's likely to bring?

  • Well truthfully Dozy?
    ima gettin' a little bit tired of change...I have been pretty much 'on the go' since age 52, and that is 20 years now...

    (Sigh), what would it be like just to sit around the house and grow old gracefully?
    I may never know, I guess...life is definitely interesting, but at the present moment I think I coming more into the area of dread. This post was edited by Benedict Arnold at March 12, 2017 6:29 AM MDT

  • I understand that. I'm lucky, being in a settled situation, but I've certainly had a few unwanted changes thrust on me. With hindsight I can see that they were all part of bringing me to where I am now but at the time they felt very uncomfortable.

  • I would welcome a nice change. I've lived here for so long that I've been looking for a nice house a little closer to the river and further away from my ex-wife. That'll be a big change for me and I'm looking forward to it! Add a nice lady and a new dog and I'll be content at last.

  • Not far from signing the papers on a really nice house. Figured I might as well spend some of that money I got for my planes.

  • The other two will come in time. You can vouch for this: One thing we learn from age is patience!

  • It really depends on what those changes are. This Wednesday is a change I highly welcome as I start a new job. Two weeks ago I had to make an unwelcomed change when I learned I had a break out of Eczema and had to get rid if a few products I enjoyed. Thank God it wasn't Mountain Dew!

  • I used to be a creature of habit until I realized it was making me miserable. I made a huge change in my life and it was the best decision I've ever made.....change is good!

    Living in an apartment is a far cry from a fresh breeze. It's going from bad to worse.

    Normally I welcome change. Change usually brings excitement, contentment, and adventure. Recently change has brought me nothing but "unwanted drama", "greed", and  "anger".  I pray in time the vultures will grow weary of waiting and finding nothing and just fly away.

  • I hope so, Ancient. None of us need that ind of stress in our lives. Good fortune to you.

    I'm not a fan of change, but only when it might make things worse. However, I'm a bit more open to the good kind of change.
