Transforming for the sake of transforming sounds kind of like a rug maker who inserts a flaw to avoid being too 'Godlike'. We're all faced with conflict and adversity daily, and change tends to occur organically from that. I do think we should try to stop avoiding change, but as you said (very effectively!), the meaning is not in the change itself.

Thanks, @SARAHPRISCILLA. Exactly. Almost everything is meaningless without a meaningful (!) motive. Transforming to become better does sound 180° the other direction from inserting flaws to avoid perfection (which allegedly only 'God' can be) 😇😁, but yeah that's also doing something 'just because' and the reason disconnected from the action.

Never! We all change all the time. Even if you don't want to change, you change because everything changes around you. And time takes its tithes and tolls even if you would prefer to decline.
