I'm so grateful that who we are is not set it stone; at any point in our lives, we can look at ourselves in the mirror and decide if we like the person we see. If not, we can change. No, change isn't easy. I've been trying to change myself almost my whole life, with minimal success. I'm grateful that I've come to a point in my life that I'm ready to face some of my challenges head on. There are quite a few that are untouched, getting quite settled into the recesses of my brain. But with time, I'll get to those ones too :) and now, a quote brought to you by the brilliant writers at Grey's Anatomy:
When we say things like "people don't change" it drives scientist crazy because change is literally the only constant in all of science. Energy. Matter. It's always changing, morphing, merging, growing, dying. It's the way people try not to change that's unnatural. The way we cling to what things were instead of letting things be what they are. The way we cling to old memories instead of forming new ones. The way we insist on believing despite every scientific indication that anything in this lifetime is permanent. Change is constant. How we experience change that's up to us. It can feel like death or it can feel like a second chance at life. If we open our fingers, loosen our grips, go with it, it can feel like pure adrenaline. Like at any moment we can have another chance at life. Like at any moment, we can be born all over again.
I just love that. Anyway, in this vein of changing ourselves and becoming someone new, I have started a new blog! Not to replace this one. This, my friends, is a food blog. YES. I'm going to blog about the healthy recipes I have tested, pictures and all! I'm way excited to start it, since food is in my top 2 favorite things.
So, start following the epicure, my newest adventure :)
