Personal Narrative: How I Changed My Life

The Degree in which I changed my life We all know that change is scary, and for some of us, almost impossible. The fear of the unknown is at times all together overwhelming. However, change happens everyday, even if we don't recognize it, change is happening around us, all the time. I chose to welcome change into my life, I had to, or I was going to lose the most important people in my life, my children.

That is the struggle though, as a person of flesh and blood, we don't see the bigger, grander picture. These changes that are brought about in so many ways, often refered to as trials or
