Chapter 1: The Nature of Change

Life is inherently unpredictable, and one constant I’ve come to recognize is that nothing is ever truly certain. Despite our best efforts to impose order through planning and organization, the universe often has its own agenda.

As if tossed in a cocktail shaker or spun around in a roulette wheel, our lives can feel chaotic and disordered. We may find ourselves navigating without direction, stumbling through dark times on autopilot. This unpredictability can be unsettling, especially for those who prefer to maintain control. However, the reality is that the universe's influence far exceeds our meticulously crafted schedules.

Clarice Lispector once reflected on how she perceives the changing seasons within herself, noting that she undergoes transformations in tandem with nature. Ana Jácomo further emphasized this notion, stating that “there’s nowhere to run. Changes, when they need to happen, know how to find us.”

Chapter 2: The Fear of Change

While I have never opposed change, I admit to having a lingering fear of unexpected disappointments. This may seem contradictory, as even small imperfections, like a crooked picture frame or misaligned table settings, can unsettle me.

However, I have come to find solace in Marla de Queiroz's insight: “I’m thirsty for change, but I don’t want to drag the furniture around or straighten the pictures. I want to vacate my habits.”

Today, I understand that life often needs to jolt us awake to encourage our growth. Stepping outside of our comfort zones and breaking free from routine is essential for our evolution. It’s akin to being splashed with cold water—initially shocking, but ultimately revitalizing.

Chapter 3: Aligning with Change

When we embrace change, both in the world around us and within ourselves, we often find a renewed sense of balance. This alignment can trigger a series of positive outcomes, transforming dreams into tangible realities.

The journey of personal growth requires us to welcome the unexpected, as it is through these experiences that we truly evolve.
