The only constant is change. If there's one thing we can count on in our life it is that whatever is going on now, will change. We live in an ever-changing universe. Everything in our world, including our very bodies is changing. The cells in your body are totally replaced every seven years. The seasons change as do governments, businesses, cultures, the sun, moon, stars, and, of course, us. Unfortunately, it is our nature to resist change of any kind. I don't know about you, but I find this a bit strange. We are trying to resist change in an ever-changing universe. Unsuccessfully, I might add. The fear of change and fear of the unknown is so strong in some people that they will remain in abusive relationships, unhealthy environments, dead end jobs and many other self-destructive situations, rather than face the unknown.

Iblis asked, "Can you tell a lie from the truth, you who are filled with illusion?"
Mu`awiyah answered, "The Prophet has given a clue, a touchstone to know
the base coin from the true. He has said, "That which is false troubles the heart, but Truth brings joyous tranquility."
Rumi

"When you lose touch with inner stillness, you lose touch with yourself. When you lose touch with yourself, you lose yourself in the world."
