The question "is change the only constant?" is a profound one, touching upon the very nature of existence. While the external world is a ceaseless flow, constantly transforming, there's a timeless wisdom that suggests within us lies a constant, an unchanging essence. Perhaps the journey is not to stop the river of change, but to find that still point of peace within yourself, the observer who witnesses all transitions without being swept away by them. This inner stillness can be a powerful anchor amidst life's turbulence.

@pixiestyxunicorn it’s hard to love it when the changes in your life have been negative, still finding the positives in it

Like Heraclitus said you can’t step in the same river twice. Everything’s flowing, including us.
