Writing task 2

The public seem to be on the horns of a dilemma on which life is spent with numerous changes instead of leaving everything on it's first appearance. Changing always comes with a huge consequence even if avoiding it might prevent bad ones. Now I will mull both cases over as bellow in order to reach my last but not least conclusion.

In terms of keeping away from transformation, it might put a stop to hazardous situation. Albeit, it makes life dull by wiping away the possibilities of enjoying new circumstances. To cite some of my friends as an example, they always regret repeating the same routine every day for many years, saying that they lost their opportunity to enjoy their youth. As well as, I and my friends are trying to spend every day with new experiences.

With regards to change, such as new work or even tiny renovation in the apartment, it brings most of the joy in our lives even if the result may be awful once in a while. For instance, disconnecting with toxic people around is far better than keeping them. By cutting ties with my childhood friend who always added negativity to my life, I started to feel myself better and be positive. From this, I gained self confidence.

Taking everything above into last but not least conclusion, I would evidently deduce that changing even the tiniest share of the life brings colossal result no matter that keeping same might help to live without huge mistakes that cannot be fixed.
