Change both excites and terrifies us. It is exciting because it represents the unknown. It is terrifying because it will take us out of our comfort zone. The truth is that we need change to grow. If we do not change we stagnate. As babies, we went through massive change in order to learn to walk. Can you imagine how frightening it must be for a baby to constantly get up then fall over, again and again. Then imagine the excitement as, suddenly, he or she is able to stand up and take their first few steps. What new horizons and fronteirs open up for them at this point. Their whole life changes in a way that they could not even start to imagine. As adults, we have the same experiences as we take on new challenges and embrace the changes in our lives. It is often difficult to let go of the past. Just remember, until we let go of it, we are unable to pass through the door to a newer, brighter future.
