This little thing called CHANGE

Dear Change,
YOU SUCK. You cause me anxiety. You make me cry. You make me miserable. You put me out of my comfort zone. You scare the living daylights out of me. I dread you. At the same time you make me stronger. You teach me things about myself that I never would have learned otherwise. You cause me to grow. You cause me to be happier than I ever thought was possible. You cause me to be independent. You have made me realize what is important in life. You have caused me to have a stronger testimony. and for those things, THANK YOU.
Love, Kinsey

Hardly anyone actually jumps for joy at the thought of change. Change is hard. Change means that everything is going to be different. I means that you are going to have to start over. I have found that I dwell on the negative parts of change. It is a lot more easy to be negative and positive. It takes less brain cells. Even though change is rough, a lot of good things come from a change of pace. Moving up to college was the hardest thing that I have ever done in my life. I have never been at a lower point in my life. But guess what? I have never experienced anything more rewarding either. I learned things about myself that I would have never learned if I stayed in my comfort zone. I realized I am stronger than I thought I could ever be. I made some of the best friends that a person could ever hope for. I laughed harder than I have in my entire life. I gained a stronger testimony. I excelled in my church calling. I got good grades! I not only survived my freshman year of college but I thrived. As much as I hate change. I am trying to embrace it because I know great things are going to come of it, even if it sucks at first. You just have to endure to the end! Even though this summer in Logan is unknown and scary I'm going to make the best of it and embrace the change that it has brought into my life.
