That the world is changing is just life’s inevitable reality. But how we are responding to it is not inevitable. It is either intentional or unintentional.

If we are either unconscious or unintentional, then we often react to such changes reflexively, either holding on to things just because they have been the way they are, or just going away with their fashions as they come up. Either way, we end up losing the core of who we are by resisting change in these two ways.
