變幻才是永恆!!!!!

There is a rule, that never change. It dose not matter what the situation is.

This rule is called " Changes" / "Variation".

It exists all the time, and under all circumstances.

It come before you knows, and do not have any symptoms before it comes.

It just destroy all you existed plans and preparation.

It brings you into a displeasure and chaos situation, this make you feel so nerves and insecure.

All you can do is ........"Prepare to get crushed......!!!!!"
