change is the only constant?

it's true that change is inevitable and sometimes it'll catch us off-guard, whether we like it or not, but to say that change is the only constant in life seems pretty much arguable to me, although people around me and myself included have been experiencing a fair amount of changes lately. some may call it the quarter-life crisis, or whatever terms to justify their situations, one thing for sure, change is something everyone is apprehensive of, even when it's for the better. Because it forces us to leave our comfort zones and step into not only a world of uncertainties and doubts but also a world of opportunities and excitements, depending on which coloured lense you decide to put on for the day. as a creature of habit, my pessimistic nature never seemed to lose its dominance over its twin.

change comes in many forms and sizes, however, regardless of its size, it always manages to create an impact in our lives. Some people who've experienced it are never the same, and i really wonder whether it's occurance is necessary if not needed. whether it's something we can live without?

but then again, if not for change, humans will never learn to adapt and hence survive. so it is something that we cannot live WITHOUT. sigh..

and so i had a little conversation with the almost non-existent optimistic side of me about change. and i had to agree with her that change is NOT the only constant in life. admist its chaotic nature, there are other forces that are seemingly more orderly and constant, like how the sun always rises in the east and sets in the west. how the positive end of a magnet is always attracted to the negative and how the rain always falls from the sky to the ground and how bees are always attracted to honey. for that, we then have something to hold on to when we're experiencing the biggest change in our lives, that would shake us to the core and transform us. its not easy to go through, but just bear in mind that the constants are too, around us.
