The Actual Reason People are Scared of Changes
because often change means a loss. A ton has changed in the past year. If you’ve read any of my other posts. You know the full story of that. I’ve also learned that I’ve been fortunate to experience some fun changes and that the fact that they’ve been happy changes has been part of what makes them easier to handle. After talking with the rest of the youth group leadership team at my church, I realized why the changes have been relatively easy for me – because there hasn’t been much loss; and I am so grateful for that.

All Squared Away
I tried a new form of dancing this past weekend: square dancing! I went to “barn dance” with some friends from church, and within a few minutes of arriving we overheard that it would be primarily square dancing, I was a bit daunted by this new style, and admittedly waiting for a swing dance portion to the evening, but the square dancing turned out to be super fun! To be honest, I hadn’t known what square dancing really involved before, that or I didn’t remember if I had learned it previously learned in middle school or something. I had never realized what it took to square dance: eight people who…
