Changes

I hate change. I always have, always will. But why do I hate change? That is the question I have been asking myself recently. People say change is for the better, but is it? If I like the present just the way it is, and wouldn't have it any other way, why risk changing it for something that could turn out to be worse? People think I am crazy for having this mentality, but I think of it more as "playing it safe". Going to college was a big change for me, and now I find it for the better. I still miss home dearly, and wish I was there now, but I find this is not the homesickness I was expecting to feel. This was a change for the better, but other changes can be for the worse. I also think that having so many changes growing up is the reason I hate them now. I grew up moving from home to home, then always changing friendships and not knowing who I really was as a person. Here, I feel I have found myself. I know who I am and who people want me to be. I won't always be the perfect person some people think I am, but I will be one thing, myself. Having a stable home, a great family, and some pretty amazing friends make life a lot easier. Right now, I wouldn't change anything for the world. --Except the weather, I want snow.-- :)
