Dealing With Changes

Two years ago, my family and I moved here in Bohol for good. At first, we found things difficult as our adaptability and flexibility was being tested. We have been through a lot of adjustments regarding lifestyle, dialect, people, environment and transportation routine, everything about the place. Living in a place where all things are new is an adventure, added the fact that we used to reside in a city where in the way of living is far different from it. There are lots of hardships, discoveries and excitements that came across the way. Old habits are hard to die. But changes are constant. And we have to get along with these changes as well as adjusting these old habits to cope with the new routines. Things like using woods for cooking instead of gas stove, stores are far, passenger vehicles comes every one hour, feeding animals like cows and pigs, and most of all, dealing with unfamiliar tongue are some of the things we have to learn in order for us to fit in the new environment.
There is no way to handle adjustments but to study carefully and learn things willingly. Dealing with changes is not easy but we have to move on, gain knowledge from new experiences and look forward to brighter days as we continue the journey of our lives in our new home.
