That goes for us as individuals, as well as the entire world and Universe. Nothing stays the same. We are born, get married, have children, lose a spouse or love one's then we get sick and eventually die. Same for the entire world and Universe. Change is a certainty. The change that we influence is the change that I'm concerned with the rest i am powerless over. Can I make a difference and try to direct change in a more life affirming and positive direction that reduces suffering in this world. That is my concern regarding change and I hope that it remains a theme for President Obama's as well.
