Change, it happens

Remember being a kid? Remember all the dream you had, or when your imagination just wandered free and you didn't give a shit about what anybody thought? You just did what you loved right? Things change though. Imagine as a kid caring about a car payment or what kind of cell phone plan you need. Weird right? No kid has any of those worries in there life, well at least for a little while until things change again. Change is a natural way of life. It is like death, it is inevitable. 

The biggest change that you would go through in life from the beginning is graduating High School. All your life your parents have had control over you, you have had to go to school and do well to pass with decent grades, and you didn't know what was out there waiting for you. As soon as you turn 18 and graduate from High School though all of that changes. You don't have to continue on with schooling, you don't have to live with your parents anymore, you need a job, and you need to figure out what you think you purpose in life is. Your whole life changes after graduating from High School. You need to find out what it is that you want to do with you life. 

For some it would be not continuing on with your education, and just finding a job without a college degree. For some that will work, some people with just a High School Diploma do really REALLY well. Other though continue on with there education to become a doctor, writer, director, marine biologist, engineer, teacher, chemist, and well you get the point. 

Now what about getting married and having kids? You never think about that as reality as a kid. Sure little girls plan there wedding, but you actually never REALLY think about one day actually having to get married. As a kid you just go with your imagination. You played in the sandbox, or at the park pretending to be superhero's. Not thinking that one day you could potentially be playing a superhero in a movie, or hauling sand in trucks for some company. 

There is one thing though that you never actually put thought into until you are older. Have you ever honestly ever thought about death as a little kid? Have you ever thought about how in fact one day you aren't going to be existent on this world? One day you will die, but the world will continue to live on. It is the ultimate inevitable. You can't avoid it no matter how much you try. It is a scary thing to think about because you just don't think about it but it is the truth. One day in the (hopefully) distant future your heart won't be beating on this world any longer. 

One thing to think about though is not death, but change and how it comes in all forms of your life. Change is as inevitable as death, in the fact that there is really no control over it. Look how much the world of technology has changed in the past 10 years? Look how much you have changed in 10 years? Take a look outside or at your local town. How much of it has changed in 10 years? Everything changes as time goes on. You cannot avoid it. 

As a student who is about to graduate from High School, I have started to become accustom to change. With my parents coming into quite a bit of money, to them changing the place where I grew up. Change has become quite natural in my life. I used to have to work everyday milking cows, now I go to work at a trucking company, and have a car payment to make every month. Just 10 years about I was eight years old and probably didn't have a care in the world. Now I have 10,000 cares in the world from my girlfriend to my amazing friends at school. 

So just get used to change because IT does happen, and there is nothing you can do about it.
