Change is inevitable. Sometimes change is our choice. Sometimes not. Using the serenity prayer can help us to figure out how to approach it. To resist change that is inevitable is a choice. You may find that resisting it may cause you anxiety, frustration and/or anger. Accepting it can lead to serenity, calm and/or peace.
Were there no change, then everything would remain the same. We would inevitably become restless and bored, snug and secure in our blanket of predictability. Change gives us the opportunity to experience challenge and prove once again that we are stronger than we ever thought we were.
