I will now try shorter entries so that I can find the time to continue writing on a more regular basis.
This morning, I came across this quote
"Inflexibility is one of the worst human failings.
You can learn to check impetuosity,
overcome fear with confidence,
and laziness with discipline.
But for rigidity of mind, there is no antidote.
It carries the seeds of its own destruction." - Anonymous
Well, it is not that dramatic...there are many other human vices I can think of. But indeed, if we fear change, and refuse to change our mindsets - all in the name of being true to our values and beliefs - then I feel that we are missing out. You can have the 'unnegotiable things in life'...but you need to have an open mind. You need to understand the bigger picture of things, and not be stubbornly resistant that you refuse to see things from another person's perspective.
One last reminder - "Blessed are the flexible, for they shall not be bent out of shape" - Michael McGriff
You accept, you adapt, you understand and become better.
