Everything Changes

Everything is always changing, we vote for it in elections, we search for it in job's and we make it ourselves every now and then in our housing decorations and our dinner menu's. The larger of these brings about what we see as a better way of life, a permanent change in the right direction. The smaller of these bring about a little excitement keeping things new and fun. We see these changes as good, yet we expect them, we have a preparation period where we decide who to vote for, what job we want, what furniture or food to purchase. We have this time to prepare for the change and the decision for this change or how this change will work is at least in part decided by us. This allows us to feel comfortable about this change. When we are shocked by change, especially when it is not our choice, we can find ourselves quite disturbed even by tiny temporary changes. Changes like the local coffee shop having run out of full cream or lite milk, having to drink what is not our normal preference or having to walk a little further to get our preferred cup of coffee can play on our mind all day, it can put us on edge and make it much easier for people to annoy us.
Nothing is certain, anything could happen, we know that things always change, we have come to accept that the people we work with will come and go changing jobs, buildings will be knocked down and built again, that our friends will become pregnate, have children and extend their families, governments and the rules that come with them will change, but we are thrown into shock when the almost insignificant daily routine we follow is disrupted only slightly just this once.
