Why are human beings often not open to change in their lives?  Why do we get stuck in our ideas and behaviors even when they don’t serve us well?  I am sure there are many answers to these questions. But, I don’t believe that it would be worth our time and energy to pursue them.  Just recognizing these things as problems, or rather impediments, can be enough to see the advantages of being open to change in one’s life.

Of course, not everything should be changed  And change for the sake of it is not a good idea.  But being open is the best approach in finding improvements in our own lives.  It’s the way we evolve as human beings. And there are so many things that can be improved if only we are open to the possibilities.  Being open is being ready.

With all of the problems in the world, we often choose to focus on the big things that are wrong.  With that, comes discouragement, because we need each other to solve those issues. Being open to change starts within each person.

When like-minded people come together to work for good, they can become a force for positive change.  Actions, such as helping those in need of basic necessities are what I am talking about.

Being open to change in our individual lives, can significantly affect others in a quest for a more caring, peaceful world.  Positive actions of some of the people can be an example for others who are open to change. Together, people have created movements that have changed the course of history, both good and evil.  If we work for positive outcomes, we can succeed if it is in the best interest of all of us.

I know, here I go being all Pollyannaish, but I think someone has to do it.  We all have so much in common. Yet, we tend to focus on our differences. This is human nature, I guess.  But, it is also human nature to want to connect with other human beings.

This is just me, Lora Marie, with a random rambling to share.  Please forgive me if I ramble on and on. I thank you for reading thus far.  You are the best!
