It occurs to me, that living in an ever-changing possibility of life, me and wife would soon come to lead a new lifestyle; completely different than we had previously led nor presently held.
More so, that we have desire to change our lives, to go for our dreams, to lead life for the better.
.....and so, some things we do, or some things we looked upon or had a way of thought about them before, may soon be out of place by then, and they have to go.
In fact, some people and some places too, may be outgrown.
Changes would bring about a new dimension of life in both of us, or each of you too, for that matter.
Changes make us all gain something new, whilst they also shed away something else from us and our lives too.
*****
For it is this shedding of things and people around us that makes many people uncomfortable to initiate nor embrace change.
With change, not only shedding comes along with it - but also new labelling, stigma and stereotype be made about each of our new lives and the changes taking place.
Some could be positively viewed, and as much there would be also those that are taken with negativity too.
These are the reception that are inevitable at all.
We would always be subjected to be judged and measured by others; a conscious and wise mind bear enough awareness about them.
Yet, what matters most, are that we lead our lives the best we believe it could be, which that that matters, and are only good, for us.
How they differ from other's lifestyles or from their expectations, are not for us to be comparative at all; after all, in the first place - it has never been a case of outdoing others, nor benchmarking our lifestyles versus of other's either.
And so the comparative behaviour are none of our business to indulge into.
Why should we?
*****
We should be focusing on just simply leading our life or lifestyle and adopting behaviours & mental attitude that we deemed appropriate for our set of paradigm, intellectual and emotional nurturing, growth and progress.
Perhaps those who could not keep in pace with our growth or changes would find many an excuse to react and recept us as they deemed appropriate (in-lieu to protecting their very own interest from the threat of annihilation or redundancy, on their part).
This is:
What are about life and
changes.
It is about evolving and living fully to our very own possibilities; it is about becoming and about being; about growing and turning into what we could.

An acorn could never be just remaining an acorn - for if it thus, it then never germinates, never had a chance to grow and become other differ than being an acorn itself only.
It is thus bereft of its enormous potentials and possibilities.
And if anyone expect an acorn to be as such, are indeed merely being comfortable with the notion of only seeing an acorn as it is, of its mere form of a small, little seed; perhaps they had not learned about, nor had come to see - an actual great oak tree before their very eyes.
.....for those who understood that the acorn perhaps one day, given the chance to germinate, would indeed turn into a sapling and that in turn too, allow it to growing still - to finally become that great oak tree; they then could easily understand why it is so, and had grasped the essense of the wisdom of life and growth, of changes, of being, and becoming.
These lot will then be in position to behave, to respond and act differently to better effects, which are brought about through those positive changes and shedding that had taken place in their life."
