Why Do People Change?

It is often vehemently denounced and criticized that people change themselves or bring changes in their character, behavior, and treatment over time. First of all, people never change suddenly after a period of time; however, they do change — whether apparent or hidden — with every second and minute that passes. 

Change is another name for time that moves ahead constantly and permanently. Therefore, every creature that is part of this universe is bound to move along with that movement. So, you would have to acknowledge change because you too are a part of this universe.

You yourself face change; then how can you not accept the change that occurs in another body, soul, or any structure? If you do not welcome it, you are causing your own loss.

Time cannot be stopped. Even if people wish that things would not change, nothing can stay the same. 

Change is inevitable; you cannot bring it according to your own will. Instead, it happens in its own way.

Let's make it easier with a simple example. You have a favorite dish, for instance, a meat dish. How many times can you have dinner with the same dish? Two times, three times, maybe five times at most. When the same dish is in front of you for the sixth time, you get fed up with it and try to eat something simple. Even if it was your favorite dish, having it repeatedly makes you tired of it. Why does this happen, and what does it show?

It is a tremendous example of change, even though you do not feel it. Being a part of your existence, it has to happen no matter what.

Therefore, a question arises here: what is there to criticize a person, friend, relative, or anyone who changes? You are not supposed to criticize, blame, or denounce anyone for something that happens by nature.

I believe that if there were no concept of change, there would have been no life lessons for humans. How would another person know us if one friend had remained the same forever? How would a person have known the value of love if he had not been cheated on? Above all, how would the significance of life be felt if there was no death?

Change is the core of life and the permanence of the universe. You will have only sorrows, deceptions, downs, and disappointments if you do not change yourself and welcome it wholeheartedly. Whenever you try to stop change, you will remain there only; everything will surely move ahead of you.

Therefore, keep moving forward, whether in difficulty or ease. Always follow the person who goes along with the change of time. Never wait, never call someone, never be disappointed if anyone leaves you, always keep moving forward.
