Change: Constant?

Writing this post for today’s writing prompt – Change is constant.

Change can be good or bad, for good and then maybe not quite so much. A lot has changed in my life in the recent years. Being diagnosed with a chronic illness with no cure, shifting from a 100% career-oriented person to working from home on select projects, gaining weight with meds and of course, motherhood.

I have changed as a person too and I don’t quite like a few facets of it and I am actively working on it. I like that I don’t easily get bothered my many things the way I used to earlier. Also, I don’t keep on thinking about a million things before falling asleep anymore . Yet, maybe it’s perimenopause or my new illness, I do tend to overreact at times that leads to problems and guilt trips. I know I must also work on being as good a listener as I was. But change, as they say, sure is one constant in a person’s life. I hope I gradually emerge to be the best version of myself.

Have you noticed that you change after major phases in your life, like marriage, parenthood or loss of relationships? Do share in comments.
