They say the only thing constant is change but being stuck in a rhythm feels so comfortable and safe. Perhaps this is why change is always seen as something to resist and met with scrutiny.
A routine or stable friendships means that there are no unfortunate surprises or hiccups, or at least for the most part. Wanting to save yourself from the unnecessary trouble or disappointment is human nature. However, as I get older, change seems more and more inevitable.
Families expand, friends grow distant, living locations become dependent on job markets, and old habits expire somehow. There is a constant struggle between wanting things to remain the same and curiosity buzzing like a bee with the anxiousness of new beginnings.
