Changes

It's never easy, this thing called change,
It turns you around, and makes everything strange.
Change is difficult; it's hard to let go
Of the things in your life you used to know.
You wish everything would stay the same
Like a movie scene in timeless freeze-frame.
But life doesn't always work the way we'd like;
We never know when the unexpected will strike.
As hard as it is (especially for me),
It's important to accept change graciously.
We can learn lessons from life's little surprises,
Assess strengths and faults, and let knowledge guide us.
Change can be a challenge instead of distress,
If we rise to meet it with courageousness,
Because change can be good, even if we don't see
What lies ahead of us, for in life, there are few guarantees.

It's been a few weeks since I last logged onto RenSpace. Offline life keeps me quite busy, what with work, family, church, and classes (although our dance class is on hiatus for a few weeks for the summer), and, well, plus a little "oopsie" I had at work involving a 12 foot ladder (never, never let a short person carry such a large ladder...oO;;;; ).  ^^;;

I just wanted to say that I've been so very blessed throughout my entire life. The Lord has been so good to me, even though I don't deserve it. He has sent so many wonderful people to cross my life's path, and I'm grateful for each person He sends my way. :)

I'd like to thank those of you here who have befriended me here on RenSpace. You have been so kind, and have made me feel welcome. :)

The fields of the Shire are graced with the loveliest flowers---each and every one of you. :)
