Be Willing to Change

“It is not the strongest of the species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change.” —Charles Darwin
That is true not just of species, but of us as individual humans.  The more ways we block change, the more damaging it is to our bodies.  Change is one of the absolutes in life.  There is not one thing that will remain constant, and - if we try to make something constant by trying to control it or hang on to it, we will lose the struggle.  Better to accept that change is a natural part of life, and to embrace it.  A helpful technique is to look back over your life and see the benefits that came from a change you resisted.  I can think of several examples in my life:  letting relationships go, letting professional situations go, letting geographic locations go.  If we can have the faith that there will always be something better in store, then we can let go of "what is" for "something better".  Let's practice that one together.
