The New Normal

As we go through life, we continually readjust what we call "normal". A friend of mine has recently gone through a great deal of life change (new baby; new job) and he now lives in what he aptly calls the "new normal". His life is very different from what it was just a few short months ago: a heightened level of responsibility; different sleep patterns; a new work schedule. What used to be "normal" isn't anymore. His life is different, better, but it's not like it used to be. And it will never again be the way it was.

Unfortunately, many people long for the old days or the old ways. What used to be normal. They'd be better off if they'll realize that today is the "new normal".
