Change happens to everyone

There is a saying “into every life a little rain must fall” and while there is an element of comfort in that saying (it does say little), it also means life can and will rain on us.

Why mention that today? Our former Genre-ista, Dora Bramden, was slated to guest today and then Life threw her a Curve Ball, more than mist or drizzle or even a steady rain (keeping up the rain analogy).

This past year life, Life, LIFE has been doing that – blowing storms in our path or using another analogy, throwing us curve balls.

Here at Romancing The Genres the Blog Queens have had those curve balls thrown their way at the same time. In ten years that hasn’t happened – not that curve balls weren’t thrown, they were – but at the same time? Not until 2020-2021.

Change happens to everyone.

Some change is anticipated like learning to walk, becoming a parent, retiring. We have time to plan, to figure out our next steps.

Some change hits us, catches us unaware. To survive we must adapt, shift, change. We are all capable of adapting, shifting, changing even when we don’t want to. It isn’t always easy nor is it something we enjoy doing, the choice comes down to whether we want to move forward or not. And not everyone does or maybe not everyone has the same vision of what moving forward means.

The Blog Queens are grateful for each and every Genre-istas who has been on this journey with us. We are grateful for each and every reader who has stopped by. We are grateful you’ve stopped by this weekend.

Which analogy do you prefer rain or curve ball? Obviously I couldn’t decide.
