...is change.today i was meant to write a different note but i was distracted by the new changes that have been made at blogger.com.(am sure you have noticed the changed background)as i was writing today's post a pop up came up encouraging me to take a look and give it a try.i was a bit edgy about it because the first design was personal to me,black is my one of my favorite colors and i had personalized the settings to suit me and my presumed readers.
as i tried out the new settings i found they did not really fit right,i could not find a good black background and the templates did not really fascinate me.i resolved to go back to my old settings but i was horrified to discover they were gone;by activating the new ones,the old ones were deleted.i guess that's how we all feel when something is changing in our lives,we feel like we want to hold on to the old even though the new holds promise for us.we are afraid of venturing into the new world feeling that we are already accustomed to the world we held.we feel like a part of us is going away when we take on the new since we had adjusted ourselves to the old.we want to run back to the former as the new is uncomfortable for us,we are not sure of it.all that is just a part of changing,its a normal process.
after discovering i could not go back to the old settings i decided to make due with what i had,i scrolled through the templates still feeling uneasy.i found a background that was a bookcase and i thought,wow this does represent me,i love reading anything in english,on the net,in books,so long as it sparks interest.(on a light note,books are a perfect gift for my birthday...)the color was also beige which i like also.though it did not fit as i wanted,i will get used to it.that's the other thing about change,it takes a process of readjustment and getting used to new things.it means stepping out of your comfort zone and charting the untouched waters.it means trusting possibility instead of wishing for the old.
i will admit getting used to things is not always easy but the longer you keep hoping for the old the more miserable the new will become,the less possibility it holds for you.take that step of faith and be willing to see what change has in store for you,who knows you may stumble upon one of the greatest things in your life.embrace change for what it is and make the best out of it,that's the policy with change.do remember that it may not always work and it may be stressful to adjust in some circumstances but positivity is of vital quality if we are ever to experience good tidings.
do take the bold step and embrace the changes that are there in your life.look for the positive which you can enjoy and let the bygones be bygones....
yours truly,
have a lovely weekend.cheers.
