Change

"Time is a dressmaker specializing in alterations."
Many people are afraid of change. They stay in bad relationships, unfulfilling jobs or lopsided friendships just because they fear change. Sometimes, life forces us to change. In fact, it drags us into changes while we are kicking and screaming for all to remain the same. Same = safe while change = unknown.
We all have our own level of "comfort zone" and that can only be defined in our own way. We know when we step out of it because we feel a sense of nervousness or even panic. It doesn't feel good so why would we subject ourselves to feeling that way? Truth is, growth comes in those times when we venture beyond our comfort zone. We learn, we experience & we come to find out more about ourselves. We discover things we never thought we were capable of doing or being. The prickly, scary feeling becomes a sweet satisfaction of saying...WOW, YES, I CAN DO THIS!! We push the bar a little and create a new, expanded comfort zone. Try it some time. Results are not guaranteed, but anything is possible.
