I can change

So a friend of mine and I were having this thought provoking conversation about how we are both super stars in turning up late for everything. And I mean literally everything, you name it and I will be late. The most classic one (or one of the most classic ones, there are too many to choose from) is being late for a boat party and being responsible (or partly I was not the only one late) for the boat having to veer off course and head back to shore. Yes I am important like that.

It is not like I want to be late; I really do start off with good intentions but then somehow the evil fairy that makes children lose track of time sprinkles her fairy dust on me and then what do you know I am running late.

This has happened so many times that another friend sent this to me.

Now I would be and I should be so upset but the problem is that this is beyond true so I just gave in and signed my name at the bottom of the page. However, having this conversation with the first friend let’s say friend A, got me thinking, is it possible to free myself from the evil clutches of the late fairy. According to friend A, person is still capable to accomplishing a 360 degree turn in their character so we should not give up.

Now I can completely relate to friend’s A thinking, I myself have experience 360 degree changes in myself, sometimes these changes are small, others are big and others actually change the core of who you are as a person. But there was a common denominator in all these changes; “The occurrence of an event.” Think it about there usually is one life altering event that takes place that finally makes a person want to change.

But then what if there is no event, does this mean that I will not be able to change, does this mean that the age old saying that “A leopard can never change his spots” comes true. Will I be a late colored leopard and what will a late colored leopard look like… I imagine it will be bright a mixture of yellows, oranges, blues, reds and a dash of black. Ok that just sounds like a neon rainbow. The leopard will probably just be red… Ok red and black I can live with that

So what do you guys think, can a person change without a life altering event or does something mega dramatic have to happen. In my case maybe finally missing my flight and having to pay something like $2000 will set me straight… hmmmm… maybe.

I would also like to know what you guys think a late colored leopard will look like. Let’s be as creative as a toddler … This is me out!!!
