Bon JournalUprooting questionsCaught in the middle of uprooting, I decided to target the April issue of Le Bon Journal ezine on the subject. Human beings by nature resist change. There is comfort in the familiar, for a good reason. Change means letting go of past and present which are certain and familiar and embracing the future which is uncertain and unfamiliar. Change increases transaction costs, that of setting up, packing, unpacking, familiarising, etc. Change creates hassle. Uprooting involves a lot of change. I am interested in the stories about change and uprooting. Somebody said that the most stressful things in life are - the loss of a close friend or relative, the loss of a job, and moving house. I'm curious if frequent uprooting makes a person more resilient or more resistant to change.
