Accept that transitions are a normal part of life from "summary" of Life Is in the Transitions by Bruce Feiler

Transitions are a normal part of life. They are the threads that hold together the tapestry of our existence, weaving through the fabric of our days with a force that is both relentless and unstoppable. From the moment we are born to the moment we take our last breath, we are in a constant state of flux, moving from one stage of life to the next in an unending cycle of change. It is easy to resist these transitions, to cling to the familiar and the comfortable, to long for the way things used to be. But in doing so, we deny ourselves the opportunity to grow, to evolve, to become the person we are meant to be. We must learn to embrace change, to welcome it with open arms, to see it not as a burden but as a gift. Transitions come in many forms - the loss of a job, the end of a relationship, the death of a loved one. They can be painful, disorienting, overwhelming. But they can also be transformative, illuminating, liberating. They are the crucible in which we are forged, the fire that burns away the dross of our former selves and leaves us shining and new. To accept that transitions are a normal part of life is to surrender to the inescapable truth of our existence - that we are always in motion, always in a state of becoming. It is to let go of the need for control, for certainty, for permanence, and to instead embrace the uncertainty, the impermanence, the transience of life.
  1. Transitions are not something to be feared or avoided, but something to be celebrated and embraced. They are the milestones that mark our journey through this world, the signposts that guide us on our way. They are the essence of life itself, the rhythm that beats at the heart of our being. So let us welcome them, let us honor them, let us revel in their power and their beauty. For in doing so, we will find not an end, but a beginning - a new chapter in the story of our lives, waiting to unfold.
