Change; often misinterpreted aspect...



Changing time;
Dude move on, people change;
Change yourself;
grrr! I hate u coz u’ve changed;
Don’t change, u idiot;
Accept changes;
omg! She is not the same person;

These are the few phrases we usually bump into. Nevertheless approach towards change has never changed. Do we really know the exact meaning of change? Are we still conservative in our approach towards “change”? Why do we hesitate to change? Do we really understand the reason behind change? Why don’t we accept the fact that each one of us change? Why acceptance is not that easy? Why do we expect things or people to be same always? Why do we often blame a person for changing?  Reflect on these questions, it leaves you puzzled for a while. 

So, if there are questions, there must be answers though at times it doesn’t make any sense. I’ve tried to reflect on these questions, and here is my reflection. Change is defiantly necessary, and it’s a natural phenomena. All of us change but in different fashions. We change and it ought to be accepted. Some personality traits may remain unchanged but we certainly learn many things which alter us as a being. We change because we are in a process of learning and we all agree that “we are not perfect” so in the quest to become perfect, we change!

We’ve cultivated a habit of blaming people and things around us, for changing. Why so? Do we expect them to remain unchanged throughout their life? No. we don’t. It seems we are not clear about the things we want; we keep altering them according to our own moods and desires. In turn we expect them to adjust to our modification. This surly creates a chaos in a relationship. It’s like, we don’t want our friends to change but expect our parents to accept changes and adapt certain values to understand present generation. We always want people to be as we wish them to be, which is foolish and ultimately we are one who suffer.

 We need to be little modest and accept our changes and respect the changes in others. Change can be negative or positive; it depends on the person’s mentality and the way his thought process work. We live only our life not other’s, we don’t have any authority to question them for being so. We expect a lot from others which in turn becomes hard for us to accept other’s changes. Just let go. Change when you want to and allow others to change. Change is a blissful experience, each day is new coz we are new each day.
