A change or a shift can happen seismically, or a shift can occur incrementally. I’ve been on this earth for 5-plus decades, long enough to witness, endure, and occasionally enjoy the changes that life has thrust upon me. What I have learned is that life is change. That is, life is constant change. From one nanosecond to the next, from a minute to a decade, from a millimeter to a mile, there’s no chance of escaping the push and pull of time, nature, and volition. Human nature (some would say human folly) and perhaps all natural things and processes both resist and embrace the ebb and flow of existence. Just when equilibrium appears to be achieved, a shift occurs and the scales are tipped once again.

Life moves on...
