We live in an age when it seems that almost anything is possible! Imagine receiving an e-mail half-way around the globe that was written only minutes before!

A clerk at a Philadelphia airline counter picked up the telephone and heard the caller ask, "How long does it take to go from Philadelphia to Phoenix?"  She was busy with another customer just then and intended to put  the caller on hold. "Just a minute," she replied.  As she was about the press the "Hold" button, the clerk heard the caller say, "Thank you," and hang up!

Our world changes so quickly we may think that most anything is possible. I heard someone mention that he believes that most of  the changes that will ever take place already have occurred. I don't think so. Our new reality is one of constant change.

Some changes can be very good, such as medical advances and technological break-throughs.
But most change is uncomfortable at first.

Do you resist our quickly-changing world, longing for the past?   Or do you embrace change and adapt with it? With all of its changes, the world can still be a wonderful and exciting place to live. Your attitude toward change is an important part of determining whether you can be happy.
