Verses about Changing
Here you will find short poems and verses about changing to inspire you to embrace change. As Charles Kettering once said, "The world hates change, yet it is the only thing that has brought progress." We hope the poetry give you words for reflection to help you accept change in your life.
If you don't like something change it;
if you can't change it,
change the way you think about it.
Mary Engelbreit
We would rather be ruined than changed;
We would rather die in our dread
Than climb the cross of the moment
And let our illusions die.
W.H. Auden
All changes, even the most longed for,
have their melancholy;
for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves;
we must die to one life before we can enter another.
Anatole France
In times of change,
learners inherit the Earth,
while the learned find themselves
beautifully equipped to deal with
a world that no longer exists.
Eric Hoffer
Most of the change we think we see in life
Is due to truths being in and out of favor.
Robert Frost
