Change

Change which is the only constant thing in life, is the thing we hate most in some cases.

How I found this out

Recently LoveLiveServe(Some YouTubers) changed their merch/clothing brand’s name, at first the name of the clothing brand was Mansion Clothing and it got changed to Strawberry Park. At that moment I felt upset but I didn’t know why because I never bothered to buy the merch, so why was I upset at the name change. I saw a lot of Comments from people on how the new name sucks and more.

Explanation

The YouTubers themselves explained how people had not been open to the change since they first proposed it. Rhino(LLS youtuber) explained how human beings are so resistant to change even if it doesn’t cost anything to them, I was so amazed by the truth and moreover fascinated that as humans beings we hold value for old things. My Parents always love saying that some old things are better than new ones but recent studies actually show that most new things are awesome.

The Meaning

Loss of control. Change interferes with autonomy and can make people feel that they’ve lost control over their territory. It’s not just political, as in who has the power. Our sense of self-determination is often the first things to go when faced with a potential change coming from someone else.

Change is the Only Constant thing in life so never resist it. It may be for the better. Never try to resist positive change.

There will be changes ahead
