Changes

My dad likes to use the saying: “Change is inevitable; struggle is an option.”

 

As much as we love getting entertained with the newest things sometimes, we are often addicted to the familiar and the comfortable. Sometimes we’re happiest when things are predictable, because that equals something called “easy.”

 

I for one am glad that our town isn’t the same as it was. Twenty years ago the western and northern sections of town were nothing but grasslands dotted with cedar bushes. Now, the landscape is dotted with new houses. New businesses are springing up in town. Change is in the air.
