Change Anyway

Already a month advanced into the new year. Time to review those new year resolutions and checking to see if you are on track. My resolution this year was generally to 'Change';

Change?? whatever
But start slowly, because direction is more important than speed.
Sit in another chair, on the other side of the table.
Later on, change tables.
When you go out, try to walk on the other side of the street. Then change your route, walk calmly down other streets, observing closely the places you pass by.
Take other buses. 
Change your wardrobe for a while; give away your old shoes and try to walk barefoot for a few days - even if only at home.
Takeoff a whole afternoon to stroll about freely, listening to the birds or the noise of the cars.
Open and shut the drawers and doors with your left hand.
Sleep on the other side of the bed.
Watch other TV programs, read other books, 
Sleep until later. Go to bed earlier.
Learn a new word a day.
Eat a little less, eat a little more, eat differently; choose new seasonings, new colors, things you have never dared to experiment.

The list goes on…

But what matters most is change.
Only what is dead does not change - and we are alive.
