Always Changing

Jack is leaving, and I’m feeling kind of sad.

You probably don’t know Jack, but you might be lucky enough to  41   someone just like him. He’s been the heart and soul of the office for a couple of years combining  42  professional skills with a sweet and gentle nature.

And now he’s moving on to an exciting new professional   43   . It sounds like it could be the chance of a lifetime, and we’re   44   for him. But that doesn’t make it any easier to say goodbye to him.

Life has a way of throwing these curve(曲线) balls    45   us. Just when we start to get comfortable with a person, a place or a situation, something comes along to    46   the recipe.

Our ability to cope with change    47   to a great degree, our peace, happiness and contentment in life.

     But how do we do that? A friend of mine is fond of reminding us that “survivability depends upon   48   .” And then there’s Chris , who once told me that the answer to life’s problems can be    49    in four words: “Go with the flow.”

I'm not exactly sure, but I think Chris was saying that life is a series of    50   —both good and bad. No matter how excellent your skill, there will always be life-influencing factors over which you have no   51   . The truly successful person expects the unexpected, and is prepared to   52   adjustments if the need should arise—as it almost    53   does.

     That doesn’t mean you don’t keep trying to make all your   54   come true. It just means that when things come up that aren’t    55   in your plan, you work around them—and then you move on.

     “Change, indeed, is painful,     56    ever needful,” said philosopher Thomas Carlyle. “And if memory has its force and worth, so also has   57   .”

      We’re going to miss Jack. But rather than stay on the   58   of our parting, we’ll focus on our hopes for a brighter future—for him, and for us. And then we’ll go out and  59  everything we can to make that future happen.

         60   our plans change—again.
