Evolution

It's something that actually hit me last night. You know when you meet people that you haven't seen in a very, very long time and you just sit back and take all that's going on in? Like, you just look at every individual person for some time and just, calculate what has changed?
I had that situation yesterday, which was quite weird and surreal. And yet, strange but familiar. Some people don't chance, regardless of what's going on or what they go through, as if it's some sort of sense of rebellion from growing up or even maturing. Some people loose weight, got to the guy, work, school or any of the above. And yet, some people just....don't change at all. Literally, at all. And if anything, they degrade or even fall behind.
Now, I am not one to judge. I am not perfect, not am I saying that I don't have my own faults. Maybe I am a bit too down to earth, good hearted or I see things from a too much of a innocent perspective. I have honestly changed and grown up whilst keeping my personal values intact. I've realised that last night. I've grow up, perhaps too quickly, but I have grown and still am growing. Whilst others seam to have surrounded themselves in a shell of comfort for the sake of fearing to get better or because something once worked for them this way, they stay that way.
Personally, I can relate to the whole 'shell concept'. Or at least develop some way to use this shell to my advantage. It's not easy, that is very true. It takes both a lot of courage and determination to change yourself or even turn something against you into something that works for you. People will notice. They will notice change, or the feeling/sensation for something better within you, especially if they haven't seen you in a very long time. They will see the change, regardless if it's big or small, positive or negative, it will be seen.
I guess in the end it's only up to you. What change you want to see in yourself and how you wish to evolve yourself. Everyone's looking for that this that is them, or that spark that they call theirs. So I guess, as long as you are happy, why not evolve, enhance and increase your happiness towards bettering yourself to something new?
