Life is kind of like a book, moving from one chapter to the next. Everyone’s book looks different, however, there are many common patterns or phases of life we all go through.
Whether it is a move, work-related or adjusting to married life, there are always changes or transitions in the course of life. Many of these changes are exciting and anticipated events, like the birth of a child or retirement. That does not mean the adjustment period will be easy, though. These moments can be extremely stressful and require time to get used to something new.
There are also people who have a fear of change and try to avoid it all together or have a more difficult time than others adjusting to a change. Some changes are simply unwelcomed and take time to accept.
