corner view – change (izmenenie)

Corner View is a weekly appointment - each Wednesday - created by Jane, where bloggers from all corners of the world share their view on a pre-arranged theme.

This week’s theme is from Joyce over at A Perfect Beginning.

with our recent move here to Kazakhstan, there have been many changes.  Some we’ve welcomed with open arms while others not so much.  One thing I’ve learnt with every move is to identify the changes and then make a conscious effort to accept them, adapt or adjust. 

It’s always easier said than done.

But it’s almost a month since we’ve been here and I think we’re doing okay.  Just ok!!

We’ll eventually bloom where we’ve been planted!!

Nice to read uyou're ok!
I think that the ability "to accept, adapt or adjust" is exactly the definition of intelligence ;)

Kristin said...

I do not think a move to Kazakhstan's easy. You are very brave.

Mari said...

Change is hard, but I know enough about you to know there are already blooms there!

Joyce said...

I love the tree in the first photo. It is hard moving meeting new neighbors, friends and adjusting. I'm glad your new place is starting to feel at home. xo

Francesca said...

Your move was a big change, I imagine it'll take a little while for the whole family to adjust!

Jewel said...

What a perfect topic for this week. Glad you are adjusting well to the change! "Bloom where you are planted.." - I have always loved that phrase.

Hope you settle in quickly and write a lot about your experiences there -such a great adventure!

Cole said...

It's so much harder to make friends as adults then as children. Your attitude is good though! Happy settling in!

Beth said...

Quite a change, but your philosophy on how to deal with it is good. And I've found if I'm open to new experiences, I'll find joy in the latest place I've landed (sometimes easier said than done, but still possible). :>)
