People always say that change is good. But I guess what theyre only trying to say is that what you dont expect to happen, has happened.

-from the movie youve got mail-

Aside form being something romantic, this movie is also a reflection of life. This line struck me the moment I heard it. It's true. It has become cliche...that change is good. Everyone says that. Even I said it to a lot of people. For all I know, it has another, deeper meaning and yes, thus is written above. Everything, and even ourselves, have to change because of sudden circumstances in our lives. Maybe a sudden turn of events, or a sudden change of decision or choice. There are things that we really don't expect to happen, but always...always happen. Sometimes we change for the better, sometimes for the worse, sometimes just because we want to, sometimes because we are forced to. I have come to realize that change...is like saying to yourself that "I have accepted what has happened and even if I don't like it, I will move on with my life and start anew." I see it as a beautiful thing, for I have experienced (and am still experiencing) a lot of changes in my life.   See, we only have to accept things and we should not be bothered about change. Maybe sometimes, it is unhealthy, but majority (of what i experienced and witnessed) produce a lot of benefits in the end. I say keep your heads up and have no fear of stumbling over bumps, because life will not be fun and exciting without bruises. You can't say that you have experienced life if you have not yet seen its surprises and if you still can't tell that you are actually in it.
