Change is inevitible

A few years ago we went on a cruise with friends and the first night we laughed, danced and wore ourselves out with fun. For the next 5 nights we tried to "repeat the Magic"...it became a slogan for us. Doing the same things in the same order trying to repeat didn't work for us! So we tried slight variations but it wasnt' the same. The expectation that we could 'repeat the magic' caused disapointment even though we were still having a wonderful time. So many of us are Change resistent and we have a formula in our lives, churches, jobs, marriages, weekends, holidays and on and on.....We want to keep the formula in order to repeat the some magic moment from years gone by....Change is constant and as we try to repeat the magic formula of yesterday we wind up missing out on all the transcendent moments of today.
