GM Change is the only constant. So the art of life, or at least a large part of it, is how to deal with change. Or maybe more accurately: how to get better at dealing with change. The Buddhist's answer is non-attachment. The Christian's answer is trusting God's plan, I guess. Gardening is goated because you'll be forced to deal with and participate in change. The seeds you've put in the ground just now are already compost, no matter how beautiful the flowers inbetween, or how tasty the fruits and vegetables. You'll have to deal with change, period. And death. And transformation. But it's all good in the end, because you know that winter won't last forever and spring will come again.

I would suggest the contemplative Christian response to change is to simply surrender everything to the Great Mystery. God is God; we are not God; All change is part of the Mystery and to accept it is to accept this reality. image
Change is eternal, eternal is present In which all gifts come and go. Non-attachment helps us see the present Trust in higher power helps us plunge into it So that we can know the eternal; see the constant clearly, And deal with change in quiet peace and joy
For me only Christianism makes sense, more precisely Catholicism. Jesus is total coherence, with personal freedom values and its result in this world can be seen on what we inherent from medieval times, by far the best time in human history. Its beauty can by seen all around in small villages in Europe.

GM Gigiβ˜•οΈπŸ§‘ Beautiful perspective. It reminds me why Bitcoin feels so powerful to me too, it teaches patience, long-term thinking, and trusting the process through every cycle. Just like a garden, you keep planting, nurturing, and believing, even through the winters. Spring always finds its way back.
Beautiful. Change can only be measured by the relationship of invariants (ironic). Knowing that spring will come again through the adjustment and gravity of difficulty towards equilibrium gives us eternal hope and the temporal substrate to experience the cyclical flow of change.
And there are always unwanted plants growing near the wanted plants. Sometimes I just get down on the ground and start pulling out those unwanted plants and continue to win.
