“Your life does not get better by chance. It gets better by change.” – Jim Rohn

Change is hard, but don’t let a new start feel like giving up. Being safe, emotionally and physically healthy and yes-even happy are important and achievable things if you are willing to make a change. It’s not a simple, knee jerk decision. It requires planning and time. I recently made the big change of selling my childhood home and starting new with my own new home. Leaving behind 40+ years of memories (especially those emotional ones tied to my mother who passed a little less than 2 years ago) was a HUGE change. But while I miss many of those things, I have to say the change has been a blessed new start for me. I still miss the place, the people, the memories but I am starting new roots and memories in a place that is better for my future.
