Here's how my FB post goes last November 14:
I may find it hard to explain my side, because no one told me this. No one taught me this. I had to realize it by myself. Everything that happens is not a change but a revelation. For me, a change is just something that you call on things that transformed into something which is different from what it used to be. For a very long time, I believed that the world is changing. Until I realized it wasn't.
We tend to think that a person changes. I used to believe that too. But believe me, sweetie, no one changes. All of us lead to the same path-- death. It is not a change but a cycle that happens to everyone. It is a revelation once we figured out how a person dies-- by murder, accident, illness, old age... Something that you discover is a revelation, isn't it? Something you do not expect.
I was wrong when I said that change is always an expected thing. I was wrong, sweetie. We call revelation a change because we see what we used to see in its different form. But it is a revelation, for you finally revealed that that thing isn't what it seems to be as it is!
If I am a good person and I became evil-- is that a change to you? Does it mean for one instance that I am already purely evil? Will it ever occur to you that it is just a revelation that I can be evil and did not really change?
If I became evil, would you think that I changed? Will you ever forget that even the evilest person in the world has a heart that cares but only for those they chose to care for?
They say, experience changes a person.
Do we really change? Or is it just a revelation of who we really are? When your lover dies, do you rejoice? Then that proves you never loved her at all. Do you feel suffering? That that proves you truly loved her.

Isn't it a revelation?
Afterwards, do you move on with your life? That reveals that you have hope in your heart to live. Or do you feel suicidal? Then that reveals you have a great weakness at coping with it.
Sweetie, this is just my point of view. The reason I stopped believing in change is because-- I haven't changed (physically, probably).
So what's your say? Don't be shy to comment it out. Be peaceful though. We are entitled to have different or contradicting opinions and what we have to do is just share respect about it.
