Resistance to change

The things we try to change in
ourselves are resistant to that change, because we make the
attempt. This very effort is where they derive their energy. Our
motive for change is the active shape of our fears, because we
believe that if we don’t change, acceptance will never occur. And
yet, the act of seeking change conveys the very lack of acceptance
we fear! Thus is breeds itself, and feeds on its own energy. When
the impulse to change disappears, then the fear also does, and the
desired object is achieved. So why would it matter if we change or
not?
