Change can happen in an instant
or it can take years of hard work
and determination.
Change can do both
at the same time.
Some things are easier
to change than others.
Your mind is the biggest pickle
when it comes to change,
because it is so fickle.
It has a habit of forming habits.
Your mind wants the familiar,
but your mind is always learning
and that creates change.
Your mind can’t make up its mind,
because it is so fickle.
Its intentions are distracted
by things interacted.
Off it goes as if your mind
had a mind of its own.

Insightful writing, Miss Lori.

"Change" always seems to have a little [or big] surprise tagging along right behind it.

very accurate, changes occur more often with pains and griefs, that is some lesson too from life, thanks for the enjoyable reading

Just got my computer outta the shop.

You betcha, Lori. Change, or the way our minds seem to do an abrupt about-face concerning this we are looking forward to.
