Does Change Happen?

It's late...but I just got done playing basketball and can't quite sleep and had a few thoughts run through my head. And since all my friends are asleep at the moment, I got to thinking...too much in fact. (Tylenol, please.)

First, how the heck do I put pics on this site anyways?! I think my site is missing some pics of some Blazers...anyways, the reason I am writing my blog tonight and it might be rather short, but may have a quick punch...just as nyquil would.

Do people in fact change? I think that's a question most of us should ask ourselves...does change happen overnight? Do we think we are a changed person, when on the outside, your friends see the same you? Change happens with time, and yes, change does happen, but I think some parts never change...and no one can do anything to stop it. It's one thing to work on the things you are trying to change, but it's also another thing...to say you have changed when the people on the outside say..."no change there"

Change happens for a reason. Some people move when they don't think they should. Some people break up relationships when they were totally comfortable being with that special someone. Some people actually give up Blazer tickets when they know there is something else better out there. (I don't know who I'm talking about there?!)

As most people start out there talks in church with..."Websters Dictionary says the following.." okay, well this is what it does say about change...to make the form, nature, content, future course, etc., of (something) different from what it is or from what it would be if left alone:

When people want to lose weight or change...they go to a personal trainer. When people want to change the way they dress, they go to a stylist. When people want to change their hair...they go to get a haircut by someone else. We cannot change on our own...nor do I think it's possible. If you would like to change the way you were in the past...talk to a close friend. If you don't talk, don't think you're changing...

I like it! Pretty profound! And I agree about the friendship post. You definitely need to find the one that can be your best friend, someone that you can spend the rest of your life with and not kill them. I found mine, and I was over 30, so you have lots of time! love ya!
