Changes

I haven't posted in a few weeks, but I'm back and with a new look!  I hope that I was missed because I did miss blogging. I felt that it was time for Moving Forward to have a new look.  Every healthy thing grows and changes over time.  This includes marriages and relationships.  They should grow and change positively as time goes on because as people, we should be evolving and changing for the better as long as we live.  I wrote in a previous blog posting that lack of communication is a major problem in relationships.  I firmly believe that failure to accept change is another factor that leads to the downfall of many relationships.  Let's be clear on what I mean.  I am not talking about negative change that could be a detriment to yourself or your family (substance abuse, infidelity,etc).  Positive changes like losing weight to become a healthier you or going back to school to further your education.  It is not good to try to stifle someone else because of your own fears and insecurities.  Change and grow with them or they will grow and move on without you.

We should be like the caterpillar.  They start off in a worm like state.  Moving slowly on the ground just going about its business.  Nibbling here and there on leaves but not really doing much.  At a certain point in their lives, it is time for change.  They spin into their cocoon and undergo an amazing metamorphosis and emerge as a beautiful butterfly.  Better than ever!
