From the book:

In everyone's life, change is going to happen, oneway or another. Learning to accept it, and make the changes you want to, isvery useful. Preparing and planning for a change helps you cope with it when itcomes. Getting used to a change can take time, but bit by bit, it gets easier.

Changes can bring new, wonderful opportunities, and makelife more interesting. They can lead to new discoveries and take you to placesyou never imagined! And, although change can be hard, it's much better thannothing ever changing at all.
