Recently, I've been reflecting on how I do not like change. It's not a fun thing to think about really, but it has been on my mind nonetheless because this time of year is a time of change--senior are graduation, friends are leaving for the summer, classes are finishing up, some friends are leaving and never coming back...my heart is all mixed up and the simplest way to explain how I'm feeling is "I hate change."
It's been on my mind. I dislike change so much so that I would start a movement against change if I could. In CLC small group yesterday, I was talking about one specific changing thing that I'm struggling immensely with right now and by the end of check-in, my entire group agreed that change sucks.
In order to combat change, I have decided to begin a cult...I mean, support group.
change haters anonymous.
CHA for short.
Once you're in you cannot leave. We have a schedule and though it has room for spontaniety, there is a rhythm that flows through each day. Of course, there will be celebrations when new people join the cult,,,I mean, support group, and great celebrations when people die. But the big thing is that people will not leave. In this group, you're there for life. It's like being Catholic, once you're in you're in no matter how much you screw up, how much you think you're running away, nope, you're still in.When your eyes are too swollen to put in your contacts because you've been crying, you'll understand.
