Routines

 The body does not like change.  Why? It interferes with its routines.  The body gets comfortable in routines and simply resists change.  When you resist a move to a new place, the reason is that you are used to your routines.  The mind and heart may say the move is good, but the body resists.  In the new setting, after the move, you are not comfortable until your body finds routines it likes or can accept.  For many of us, to accept our cross is to accept change when our routines are taken away from us.  That is why I admire the fisherman who followed Jesus, as well as the women.  Their routines were all upset.  That may be why wisdom figures tell us to let go of everything if you are going to make a complete change.  There is no such thing as partial recovery from anything.
