To Change or Not To Change

from The Everyday Human · host Eastin DeVerna

January: On Existence January 31Today's reflection was inspired by a quote from the novel Love in the Time of Cholera by Gabriel García Márquez.“People just don’t change.” Have you ever muttered this phrase in response to repeated negative actions or the continued failings of others or yourself?I used to believe this, but I've come to learn that we all change--and that it’s inevitable. We are all either changing for better or for worse.With each and every day, life gives you the opportunity to change for the better. You just have to take the chance.Reflection title: To Change or Not To ChangeCreative inspiration: Gabriel García Márquez, Love in the Time of CholeraReflection Question: How have I changed or not changed recently? Will today be the day I choose to change for the better?
