Change. Perhaps the scariest and most exciting word in the English language. It conjures up images of fear, darkness, uncertainty, heartbreak, regret and painful choices. But it also evokes feelings of joy, lightness, purpose, new love, optimism and inspiration. Change is hard. So why do we seek change? Simply, to create a better future.
