Hope... and Prepare


I have this weird reaction to change. I tend to pretend it’s not happening.  What I do is the equivalent of an ostrich putting her head in the sand (by the way that is a myth they actually don’t stick there head in the sand). Nevertheless that’s what I do. But the problem with this is change comes anyways.

I avoid it because its scares me, but the truth is, by facing it, we can often alleviate some of the fear. By arming ourselves with information, we can prepare ourselves. All right, so we can’t prepare ourselves for every possible event, but by facing things we at least feel a little less caught off guard. And that, at least for me, provides some comfort.

  1. Wow! I was JUST thinking about this today. I consider myself a pretty flexible, adaptable person, but today I was just thinking, whether this winds up good or winds up bad, I am going to just not think about it.

    It didn't work.
