change

I'm watching the movie version of The Bridges of Madison County on TV. I listened to the book many years ago, and I would put it on my list of most enjoyable books I've ever 'read.' I noticed in the movie that Robert (Clint Eastwood) says to Francesca (Meryl Streep) that change is good because it's something you can depend on happening. That's a paradoxical truth that can be useful to think about.

We can expect things to change.

The dogma of change gives us stability. We can count on it.
