In looking at some writing I came across this quote which is applicable for everyone, and at any time.
"Wherever you go, no matter what the weather, always bring your own sunshine" - Anthony J. D'Angelo
This statement can be true no matter where we are. Sunshine in our lives is merely an echo of the happiness that we have in our life. When we are happy, then there will be sunshine in our lives. Even on the darkest, rainiest, most miserable of days. It is merely a state of mind that we all have, that determines what the sunshine will be.
Cheer up and smile and you will find that no matter what the weather or day holds for you, it will seem better.

Change
There is a time for all people when things need to be renewed or something different tried. No-one is exempt from that happening. What's more none of us should try to be.
Sometimes things get renewed in a way that people don't like, even though for the most part they are altered to make things work better.
One such example is the new Facebook layout. It seems as though thousands of people are unhappy with it. My question for them is this - have they actually looked at the changes closely?
The Facebook developer wanted to make the profile or home pages for everyone easier to follow. In such regard he achieved that. There is less clutter on people's profile pages as the different boxes to their "applications" are no longer on the front. Does this mean that some things are no longer there? Not at all. None of the previously available information has been deleted. It is still there, only moved to a different tab. An extra click and people can see what was at the front.
Other changes were to the way that applications are first accessed. While there isn't the same ability initially to adjust settings, that can still be done. It almost makes you wonder why people can't take the extra few seconds to make some more clicks to do so.
It goes to show how people don't like change in their lives. Sometimes they can choose to have the changes made, at other times the changes are forced upon them whether they want (or indeed like) it or not. How people react to change is what is important. Rather than see change as something to be feared or something bad, if people viewed change as an opportunity then they should welcome it. If everyone did that, who knows what may occur in the world.
