How many of us have experienced changes in our lives?Almost everyone of us. Sometimes our schools change, sometimes we move to a new place, sometimes we lose people and sometimes we meet new people. Thuschange is the law of nature and is something inevitable just like death. The second question is how do we change with changes?I opine acceptance is the key.Whatever new has forged itsway into our lives, we need to accept that and live with that. This thing is easier said than done..

Most of the changes come with chaos. For instance, a person lost his mother and now his world has changed. The easier way to deal with this is accepting the reality but the void that has been created by the death is disturbing him. Apparently he may seem fine, he may seem happy to the world but the thought of his mother passing away is haunting him. It’s not easy for him to accept this irreparable loss.

Most of us have this feeling and I’m sure a number of us can relate to it. We are literally afraid of the unwelcome and unwanted changes. What we can do is to realise and admit the chaos that the changes are bringing with them. We need to walk through that chaos, remembering that nobody will help us. We have to walk that road alone. People may guide us but the journey is ours. And when we start to find the comfort in chaos, we gain familiarity with it and somehow things become easy.

We need to tell ourselves different stories sometimes. And we need to be strong enough to be able to absorb the good and bad in it. And with the last advice, I must say that chaos is temporary and passing. Be comfortable with it because it all up to us how we react to the things.
