Outlasting Change

When we desire and come to expect change — and, indeed, as it becomes imminent — we hardly expect things to actually get worse. But often they do.

Whether we welcome the change or not, change is never fully comfortable or satisfying. It’s work.

As the change unfolds and all people subject to it are given time to adapt, we settle into the new reality and it hardly appears as we perhaps preconceived it. The important thing is, is it operating as it was designed?

A useful M.O.:

Endure the change. Outlast it. Try not to have a perspective. Why suffer delusions when they’re so unnecessary? Get beyond the fatigue of it all.
