Changing is good?! really?!
Lately, I noticed that everybody and everything around me is changing:
my old friends from school changed, my parents changed, my brothers changed, Amman changed, even the new friends changed!!
or maybe it’s me… i changed!
A friend told me: “changing is not necessarily a bad thing… it can be good.. actually it’s healthy! did you expect that all your life will be the same for you? and that you’d stay the same?!”
for the matter of fact.. YES!! i don’t want to change! i liked myself the way I was… and i don’t want to change! but I admit that i am changing!! and there’s nothing that i can do about it! 
I just don’t understand!! if changing is good and healthy… why do i feel so bad about it?!
u always need to change , u cant stay as u r , cuz u r not 100% , u would like to reach perfection so u need to be ina contiuous cycle of change , this is one of my thoughts and rules about life …… u fired it up in mind i will have a post about it soon !
Cheeerz !

Change!!
Hmmmm … this is a very intensive and wide concept … and it is inevitable … so if you don’t change, everything else around you will and you will come to a point when you need to adapt or you will be extinct …
I read some excellent books about change and I will recommend them for you:
1- Who Moved My Cheese? - A book by Dr. Spencer Jhonson and such an excellent book it is .. it is a very short book and you will finish it over night, you can read more about it on (http://www.whomovedmycheese.com/)
2- Fish - A book by Harry Paul, Harry Paul, John Christensen, Philip Strand, John Christensen. With this number of authors, you would think that it is a long book but the truth is, you can finish it in 2-3 days or less. This book tells a story about a business woman (manager) who changed the workplace around her and her whole team based on a success story of a fish market, so get the book and read it, I am sure you will enjoy it. You can read the story of the fish market on (http://www.pikeplacefish.com/)
There are many books I can recommend for you but I will keep those till we meet
Don’t panic about the change that you are witnessing within yourself … it is all good and will make you a better person .. trust me on this one

That’s normal, everything keeps changing including people. It is a bit scary at first but with time you’ll get used to the fact that nothing is static. Cheer up

Don’t be so sad, it’s life…and from the sounds of it, it must “evolve”; and that means it must alternate or change somehow, so without knowing it or even controlling it at the beginning you’re gonna change alot, especially in your junior year at the university, the envirnoment suddenly changed and even the input all around you has transformed into something more sophisticated.
but beleive me, ENJOY these days, cause someday, somtime, you’re gonna wish for the days when your responsabilities where in caring about what to eat at lunch or what to wear this morning. after you graduate, they’ll be a time where u’ll be strapped and other people will be depending on you, and you’ll not be able to change the routine you’re trapped in…….bla bla bla
sorry for this hypocracy……….lolololol

u dont feel bad about changing.. u feel afraid! ppl are typically afraid of change coz they donno what’s comin their way.. how wud they deal with all the new issues, or, the same issues with a different perspective.. again.. there’s no such thing as right or wrong.. everyone knows what’s right n what’s wrong! so 3adi.. there’s nthn wrong with change.. but deep down inside.. u know yr the same person.. trust me on this one.
