Change is constant in life - Why lament

Dr Ranbir Laishram *

Change...
As time goes by,
Things change, People change,
The world continues to change.
We all face some changes in our lives
Change is the law of the nature,
A normal phenomenon of the universe,
None can resist change.

Life's changes -
Come in all shapes and sizes,
The unexpected turns and twists of life,
Happy and exciting,
Messy and complicated,
Painful and sorrowful,
A reality in everybody's life,
Often we fail to accept the unexpected.

COVID-19 Pandemic has changed our lives.
Amid Lockdown, curfew,
Mask and social distancing,
And untold suffeings,
Episodes of surging epidemic waves,
Everyone gets stuck inside the confines of the New normal life.

Accepting the life's realities,
A new mindset, A new behavior,
A new attitude and practice,
Although difficult at first,
Easier as we continue to practise,
Stepping out of our comfort zone ,
And making changes within our reach,
Only then. our future can be changed.
So, despite the hardship,
Accept the change and move forwards...
For change is the only constant in life,
And survival and comfort can't co-exist in pandemic.
