Change is the only constant


Today the moving company came to assess the shipment to Buenos Aires and some to Salt Lake and that is when I realized this is really happening. We are moving away for good and that is when I feel a little afraid of what the future will bring. You get so used to a place, people you work with and now we have to start over. An article I saw by someone who moves a lot came to mind. 

"Fear is an idea crippling, experience- crushing, success-stalling inhibitor inflicted only by yourself. But truly we are the ones who create our own fears. We decide what we are afraid of by thought we allow into our minds. We think our fears into existence and then we allow them to exist and grow in our minds until they take control of our emotions. Fear left unchecked will keep us in a situation we'd better to get ought of and keeps cloning to what was instead of moving toward what can be. 


Sometimes we convince ourselves that the certainty we think we have today is better than the uncertainty that would come if we were to try something new. Our fears literally cut us off from discovering what more or lives might be. 


My advice on change is this. Think of your life as a road trip where you are guaranteed that each new exit along the highway will take you to a place more beautiful than the last. Each new exit will introduce you to more and more fabulous people that will further enrich and bless your life. Each new exit you explore will teach you more than the last one did. Each new exit you visit will give you more experience and wisdom that you ever had before. With every new exit you are guaranteed the opportunity to become a better person. That highway is our life, and change is nothing more than arriving at the next exit with hits great big sign that says: It only gets better from here." Amy Anderson


That is exactly what I needed to hear.
